Did you hear about the Michigan doctor who was reportedly giving cancer treatments to patients who didn’t need them? Dr. Farid Fata has been charged in a $35-million Medicare Scheme and accused or ordering unnecessary hematology and oncology treatments for healthy people.
Dr. Fata allegedly ordered chemotherapy treatments for people whose cancer was in remission or for end of life patients who would not have been helped by such treatments. He did it to rake in payments from Medicare.
If those patients had obtained a second opinion, like experts suggest all patients do after receiving a diagnosis, many if not all would have learned they did not need the treatments Dr. Fata prescribed. A second opinion in this case would have saved them a lot of physical and emotional trauma.
