But why would he have been going to multiple doctors in the first place? Look at that list of meds. That's far beyond, "Well, I went to this doctor for one thing, and this other doctor for another thing ailment, never thought to mention the other presrciption." It takes a concerted effort, either by a single unscrupulous doctor, or by a patient doing end-runs around the system, to pick up such an extensive cocktail.
You'll note, by the way, that the report explicitly calls it "
abuse of prescription medication". I'm having a hard time believing that he was just ill informed.
