The Maryland dealers association says fewer than 2 percent of the claims have been reimbursed. The government’s solution - assign an extra 1,000 workers to process the paperwork. http://www.baltimoresun.com/business/bal-bz.dealers18aug18,0,850…851.story. It is one thing to delay payments to car dealers; but in the case of health care delays, it could result in a patient dying.
The federal government cannot run an efficient “cash for clunkers” program. How can they think they can run health care? Latest numbers 320,000 clunkers have been turned in but the government has only approved 25,000. Dealers are waiting for their money -but in the meantime they have to meet payroll and pay taxes and other expenses
