A lot of them might not be astute investors....ya never know
. I do recall the knee surgeon who wrote me the script for 50 Percocets decades ago was partners in the rehab place with two other docs. After the initial visits, I was basically going to a nice gym (set up for pro athletes) by the three and working just on my knee on my own, no PT involved. Would ins. pay for a gym, no way...but months of $125 visits three times a week..cha ching!
The rehab cost more than the surgeries, was essential, and worth it (to me, the patient)....but certainly not cost effective imo.
