Background- retired RN, experiance all areas; includes Utilization review; no fraud correct. Loss of PartD Medicare again to force privatizing Medicare! Advantage plans have constant fraud and deny care! See the big picture and propaganda! Business models have ruined healthcare!

Just checked, and in 2025 no #Medicare #PartD provider will cover #Paxlovid for #COVID19. We'll now see the virus burn through the vulnerable elderly population as never before. Humanity's handling of #SARSCoV2 has been so incompetent that #H5N1 stands to be truly devastating.

Because the pols that were in office when PartD was created & those in office since don't give a hoot about what comes out of our pockets. It was written into the Regs that PartD pricing could NOT be negotiated by Medicare. Those pols had to have received financial kickbacks from Big Pharm.

Gotta love people who think the order in which you give information in a conversation or speech is determinate of how much value you place in the information.

New paper out in #HealthAffairs on potential savings with the #InflationReductionAct in Medicare #PartD. Lots of savings for those needing specialty drugs but a note of caution for those with lower spending. Need to shop for a new plan if you take a preferred brand, especially in stand-alone plans!

I'm waiting for ONE politician in CA to make life easier for seniors. Name something CA's done for seniors re taxes, property taxes, parking, access to health care outside of Bush's terrible "advantage" program. You think 70-80 yo's can afford "supplements" & PartD?
