Original Medicare is an absolute joke. A complete waste of money unless you're one of the thousands of physicians, facilities or systems that abuse, fraud or overuse it to the tune of $100+ billion each year.
Exactly. That’s why Medicare pays these private insurance companies to enroll beneficiaries into their plans and thereby “privatizing”their Medicare. So in this case, the lab would be billing Humana or Blue Cross for example, instead of Medicare.

I don't think so. Lab claims for enrollees for patients in those plans would be paid for buy those plans. These claims were billed to Medicare and Medicaid.
