This might explain why Medicare Advantage plans are losing their support.

More former supporters from each side of the aisle are wavering.

The Wikipedia entry for Medicare makes the point that the public expresses more support for government programs that are universal than those that are means tested.

MD Anderson, in Houston, has failed to come to agreement and will not remain in Medicare Advantage networks of the Texas Blues.

Thanks to a Security breach and the evil HIPPA legislation, about one million Medicare participants will be getting new cards with new identifiers (numbers).

Finally, I was able to view graphs illustrating the dramatic effect that inflation has had on the premium rates of Plans G and N. Too bad those poor victims weren’t enrolled in the High Deductible Plan G (HDG) plans touted by Medicare for the Lazy Man!

Douglas B. Jones Author: Medicare for the Lazy Man

Doug Jones burst forth from Oklahoma like a prairie tornado, born of an Omaha Beach victor and the shortest-serving Miss Oklahoma in history. He was such an accomplished student that nine years of undergrad studies eventually earned him a BA degree from the University of Arizona.
Having been branded at birth with the John Hancock Signature, he became the third generation of a life insurance dynasty founded in 1920. Eventually, a genuine dedication to health insurance conferred black sheep status, causing him to strike out on his own.
Decades later, friends began to pester him about Medicare, angling for free advice. After a period of deep contemplation and reflection, Doug arrived at conclusions and formed some opinions that place him squarely at odds with many other Medicare experts.
Thus was born Medicare for the Lazy Man!
