Not Ranked
In the above example I cited, as reported on 60 minutes, it is clear the many doctors and hospitals while not "technically overcharging" are carrying out unwarranted procedures that increase their bottom line.
We can dance around the terms but "over charging" is a good one.
For those that wish to diminish 60 Minutes as a worthless news show, good luck with that. It's an uphill battle at best.  For instance, their report on the Las Vegas oncology closure was reported by numerous other new's outlets. In fact, I first heard about it outside of 60 Minutes and was surprised they covered the story in greater detail.
