Medicare, RVUs and steakhouses

Another example showing the ridiculousness of the Medicare RVU system:

And even worse, the insurance companies use the Medicare RVUs to set their rates, so everyone is socialized. If the government told all restaurants that they could only charge $10 for a steak dinner, whether they were Golden Corral or Smith and Wollensky’s, what do you think would happen to the quality of the dining experience? Is that really what we want our country to be like?
