Not really. Those with a solid retirement along with Medicare remain mostly unaffected. Everything Trump has done, including tax policies, has benefited me greatly. He’s been the best financial friend a boomer could ask for.

Part B gets an $18 per month with a small deductible increase. That’s very small compared to past years.

Promoting preventative care vs ‘I can’t afford it so I’ll just go to the ER’ is much more efficient. Those unpaid ER visits will get passed along to everyone else.

Republicans had better come up with something better.

True....and those ER visits from all these illegals should be great also

I still remember the one time an employer told me and others to not go to the ER in an emergency but to wait for an appointment with our doctor Sure, yeah....OK

Republicans have nothing it seems

The republicans have started taking the AMA to task on doctor’s charges. That’s because the AMA has had a slight shift toward Dem support.

It should be the last resort, whether insured or not. The uninsured and what could have done to prevent them showing up to begin with is the concern.

Lets bring in millions of uninsured illegal immigrants and wonder why we have a healthcare $$$ issue.

Illegal aliens only account for 1 or 2% of total healthcare spending, so implying that’s the main reasons we have issues is false. Uninsured Americans cost way more in uncompensated care costs.

How can you come up with any number like this when they can come up with an accurate number of illegal immigrants in the US?
