                                    ___________

Before McMILLIAN, FAGG, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
                            ___________

PER CURIAM.

       Ida Pierce appeals the district court's adverse ruling affirming the Secretary's
decision to deny Pierce a waiver of an overpayment assessed under the Medicare
secondary payer statute. After careful review of the parties' briefs and the
administrative record, we agree with the district court's determination. Because an
extended opinion would lack precedential value, we affirm for the reasons stated by the
district court without further discussion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
