Seniors in our country deserve more from Medicare… In a time where people were promised that they could depend on Medicare and Social Security, many seniors trusted our government. Who could blame them? Throughout much of the 20th century, families thrived. Husbands worked hard at the office while wives worked hard at home to raise children, and people were able to live on one source of income. Our country has changed. Medicare has become expensive, while Social Security income seems to provide less and less.
As the baby boomers continue to age, the number of seniors relying on Medicare to cover their health care needs is increasing. But while Medicare is a critical safety net for millions of Americans, it can be difficult for seniors to understand. The complexity of Medicare can be overwhelming for many seniors, who often struggle to understand their different coverage options, what services are covered, and how much they will pay for them. In addition, many seniors are unfamiliar with the paperwork and regulations required to get the most out of their Medicare coverage. Seniors also face financial challenges when it comes to Medicare. Although Medicare Part A and Part B provide some coverage, they often don’t cover the full cost of care and seniors must pay out of pocket for some services. Additionally, seniors may not be able to afford supplemental insurance plans or may not understand how to find the most affordable coverage. Seniors may also find it difficult to find a doctor who accepts Medicare. Since many doctors are not required to accept Medicare, seniors may have difficulty finding a doctor who will accept their coverage. This can be especially true in rural areas, where there may be fewer options for care. Finally, seniors may be unaware of the assistance programs available
