MEDICARE VOUCHERS; A SENIOR SCREWER.


Private would be more interested in profits and rationing of services. NO private healthcare would insure a senior citizen for $12,000 a year. ONE MRI cost $10,00 lone. And seniors who have paid into Medicare do not want Medicare voucher and private healthcare. Just a fact and polls are not to be trusted.
Medicare vouchers DOA.\

You cannot balance the budget and pay down the deficit on the backs of seniors who have paid for Medicare and want it when the time comes. $12,000 cannot buy healthcare for senior who have at least one chronic illness. Would or could you insure seniors medical care for $12,000?
My power chair cost $24,000. Who will pay for homehealthcare and rest home care and end of life care?
Will senior have to buy a medicare supplement plan as they do now? If they do they are screwed with medicare vouchers.


What does Medicare pay for?
Published 08/26/2008

What does Medicare pay for?Medicare covers certain medical services and supplies in hospitals, doctors' offices, and other health care settings. Services are either covered under Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) or Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance). If you have both Part A and Part B, these services and supplies must be covered as long as they are reasonable and necessary for your health, no matter what type of Medicare plan you have. A list of the covered services is found in the Medicare handbook.

For more detailed information, look at the publication "Your Medicare Benefits".
