I don't think it's even likely that having been caught with their hand in the cookie jar that the private insurers are going to cut any benefits.
It Is and Has been done and this Advantage CUT is above and beyond that.
Ah yes how about this on a Obama website.

ObamaCare Medicare: ObamaCare and Medicare

Get the Facts on the Impact of ObamaCare on Medicare

ObamaCare Medicare reform improves and expands Medicare for seniors. The ObamaCare Medicare cuts are estimated at $716 billion. Those cuts are reinvested into Medicare and ObamaCare to improve care for seniors and close the Medicare Part D "donut hole" among other things. Let's take a look at what the [B]ObamaCare's Medicare cuts [/B ] Get That Cuts Cuts Cuts cuts in Medicare is even mentioned. And Of Course Another name for CUTS is Reform. LOL I added this.
Now back to the quote:
and reforms really mean for seniors and how ObamaCare will impact Medicare and Medicare Advantage?

I put that link in so folks can see what some consider "facts". If its NOT a cut, its certainly gonna hurt. Its already affecting those who depend on home health, among other things. The explanation is lame at best.

The government is going after private insurance for overcharging, that is not a cut in benefits, that's getting back what they shouldn't have had in the first place.

It's really that simple.

Because this has become a healthcare/obamacare/medicare debate.


The OP had a valid question regarding her healthcare and the tests her dr. performed.

Thread drift happens all the time, doesn't it? Even so, wouldn't just not reading rectify the problem?

Yes thread drift happens all the time.

Except healthcare debate is such a hot topic.

I know there is an obamacare debate thread in the chat area that lights up every now and then.

Better yet, stick to the original subject, which is NOT politics!

Will the moderators please close this thread?
