Questionable evidence and argumentation regarding alleged misuse of Medicare.

Aust Health Rev

Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, The Australian National University Medical School of Medicine and Psychology, Canberra Hospital, Canberra, ACT, Australia; and Australian Medical Association, Barton, Canberra, ACT, Australia.

Published: August 2024

What is known about this topic? We discuss a recently published paper that alleges clinicians are causal agents of non-compliant billing of Medicare. What does this paper add? The paper's arguments are partially supported by unreferenced assertions, potential logical fallacies, inaccurate reporting of referenced material and unsubstantiated rhetoric. What are the implications for practitioners? Due to the lack of substantive evidence, it cannot be concluded that clinicians are the causal agents of non-compliant billing of Medicare.
