This morning the ABC Radio AM program aired a series of unsubstantiated claims from the private health insurance (PHI) industry.

Medical Technology Association of Australia (MTAA) CEO Ian Burgess responded by saying: "For Bupa to suggest that surgeons are not acting in the best interests of their patients and not selecting medical devices that are the most clinically appropriate for their patients is outrageous. Surgeons are simply not involved in the financial transaction relating to the supply of a medical device. "Bupa is directly questioning the ethics and integrity of the medical profession and also the medical device industry. Bupa is also scaremongering patients and their own policyholders. Any Australian paying for private health insurance deserves the very best treatment from the very best surgeons in the very best hospitals that their cover can deliver. "Bupa is at war with doctors in Australia and this is another attempt to scaremonger. But the only people they are scaring with these claims are patients and policyholders."
