BTW, if you click on the sponsor link for the AARP, please also sign the petition at the AARP site for keeping Medicare fair and affordable. You don't have to be an AARP member to do so, only a concerned citizenThis is an example of why you should sign that petition: My mother's elderly, and my father died recently after a lengthy illness. What Medicare is now demanding she pay out of pocket for my father's medical expenses - from ambulance fees to x-rays to physical therapy - is outrageous. Since my father didn't leave a will, she has to go to court to have his name taken off the house title. But by law, the judge won't take my father's name off the title of the house until she pays off these Medicare bills. It's going to take her months to pay off these bills, and it seems every month, Medicare bills her for something else. My mom's even taken up a part-time job, even though she's 71, to help cover the bills. It's at the point that we're talking to my mom about going to court to contest these Medicare bills as well. That's how bad it is now. If you have an elderly parent or are elderly yourself, you likely understand the immediate concern. And if you're a working American adult under 50, you're likely struggling to get by in today's economy, which means you probably don't have a lot of savings or a generous retirement plan. In fact, most Americans now expect to keep working until their 70's because retirement is not financially feasible for them, and the biggest concern cost-wise for such people is health care coverage. So just imagine how bad this could be if when you're old enough to get Medicare. You can also go straight to the link to sign the petition: https://secure2.convio.net/aarp/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=111 IP: Logged |
