You need to do some research and learn what you are talking about, ****!!! You must be one of those free loaders that want to get something for nothing.*Beekeeper » 11 Dec 2024, 2:17 pm » wrote: ↑ So you want to DEMEAN people for making a living in the protection business- ie Insurance??
So you make a CLAIM that Advantage plans are a rip off, but you can't tell me WHO is getting harmed here AND how anyone is getting "ripped off".
IF the beneficiaries are getting MORE benefits, LESS costs, and the Government payments are actually ABOUT THE SAME as someone on Traditional Medicare, who got "Ripped off"??
You're sounding like a **** LWNJ who has some crusade to destroy the things that are actually helping people on this one.
The taxpayers are the ones getting harmed!!!
Officials have known for years that some Medicare Advantage plans overbill the government by exaggerating how sick their patients are or by charging Medicare for treating serious medical conditions they cannot prove their patients have. Health insurers that treat millions of seniors have overcharged Medicare by nearly $30 billion the past three years alone as of 2019. $10 BILLION a year will cause Medicare to go broke!!!
The insurance lobby, though, is powerful and owns many politicians. Efforts by the CMS to audit insurance programs like medicare advantage by the CMS have been met with strong opposition.
I paid into the Medicare system since 1968 and I like it. Hospitals cannot get by with overbilling, which they do on a regular basis. All minor and major medical bills I have had that Medicare only paid 80%, I can pay out the 20% monthly at less that private insurance premiums. Why do freeloaders like you have a problem with paying for your own ****?
Real Medicare pays bills when they’re presented. Medicare Advantage insurance companies, on the other hand, get a fixed dollar amount every year for each of the people enrolled in their programs, regardless of how much they spent on each customer.
It is getting worse by the year!!!
