Thom the experience you describe is due to the poor reimbursement that medicare provides which leads to long wait times due to low numbers of physicians who want to accept low medicare reimbursement for an expensive and possibly complicated hip replacement surgery. Try the same scenario with private payor insurance and you will see a vastly different result.

Want to make ol Granny wait longer? Go to a government administered national healthcare system.
