springhill group counselling | Tumblr - Government warning labels are often insane
http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/springhill-group-counselling
What caught my eye the other day is this insane chuckler in Florida law (F.S. 212.0515) requiring a vending machine operator to register his machine with the state, and “affixing a notice to each machine” saying among other things, “Notice to the customer: Report any machine without a notice. You may be eligible for a cash reward.” The Florida Department of Revenue then dutifully promulgated a regulation mandating that the type in the notice “must not be smaller than 14-point bold face, and the words ‘cash reward’ must not be smaller than 30 point.” It would seem as though our legislators and regulators want the notice that isn’t there to be more visible to the customer who can’t see it because it isn’t there, by requiring it to be printed bold face type. Or could one assume that our bureaucrats are so full of themselves that they believe the average customer has read F.S. 212.0515, and searches likely locations for unlabeled machines in order to claim a reward? You can’t make this stuff up. What is so disheartening is that the average citizen is so conditioned to senseless warnings or regulations they treat them like junk mail.

(1888PressRelease) Uncovering medicare scams latest news articles for general public to use. U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Miami, has reintroduced legislation that would double the amount of fines and incarceration for people in prison for Medicare fraud/scam. It also creates a new criminal offense punishable with a 10 year minimum sentence for those who intentionally sell or distribute the ID numbers of Medicare beneficiaries. According to the Springhill Group, the legislation also bars those who have been part of Medicare dupery in the past from billing Medicare if they switch companies. It also facilitates real-time information sharing among law enforcement agencies to aid in uncovering and dismantling Medicare scams. “South Florida has been known as the epicenter of Medicare dupery for years,” she said. “It is time we took the fight to those who seek to defraud Medicare and prey on our most vulnerable citizens. This bill not only raises the penalties for those who engage in Medicare fraud, but also sets up a pro-active paradigm that will help stem the tide of abuse in South Florida and across the nation.”The bill takes particular aim at Medicare theft in Miami-Dade County, widely regarded as the nation’s capital of healthcare dupery. Medicare dupery in South Florida costs taxpayers between $3 billion and $4 billion every year, according to law enforcement and healthcare officials. Nationwide, Medicare and other healthcare fraud is estimated to cost $68 billion each in very year.
