Agree! The extra you pay with your taxes, is peanuts compared to what you would pay for present premiums, deductibles and copays. That is how it works in Canada.

I'm pretty sure these ignorami yelling M4A don't know that Medicare has premiums, copays, and hefty deductibles with no drug coverage.

For individuals buying their own private health insurance plans in Washington, premiums have increased by over 22% for 2027.
This is outrageous and does not even include the potentially high deductibles, copays, or out-of-network costs. We need Medicare for All.

Well you probably have a crap medicare advantage plan from which the insurance companies make tons of money . My dad has traditional medicare and he loves it. Everbody should have it with copays and deductibles (if any) proportionate to means. Or universal healthcare - both work for me.

Universal healthcare is actually more than M4A as proposed. All aspects of care, fuck the copays, fuck the network, prescriptions as a flat low cost.
As the product of the UK NHS who has excellent company healthcare (as do all who work for me)- I’m with the Pope.

Deductibles, copays, coinsurance, Medicare, Medigap, premiums… it’s just too much!

Back to needing $450. I have to kill this overdraft. I have to make this late student loan settlement payment—just proving it’s in the mail avoids default.
Need $1,550 for this and more, but I need $450 NOW to settle the overdraft and loan payment. Please help.

As an adjunct in CCSU system, I buy into the state plan during semester, but then have to switch back to COBRA in summer. It doesn't solve affordability problem - we pay $3158/month 4 2 ppl. But it's better insurance than we had on the marketplace (same price w/$7K ind. deductible & higher copays)
“Incoming Democratic senators James Talarico (Texas), Annie Andrews (S.C.), & Josh Turek (Iowa) each backed a public option for Americans to buy insurance from the government.
They, among others, have also pledged to work toward preventing corporations from monopolizing parts of the health sector”

Democrats begin asking: How far can we go on health care?
Many in the party are pushing for Democratic lawmakers to go big on health care, but their dreams may crash into reality.

On a good note, we have the ChampVA coverage. So, worst case is we have to do some copays between now and her regular start of a plan year.
The optimal thing would be for me to land one of these new gigs, though.

Medicare For All would include dental, vision, prescription, everything, with no more payments at the point of service. No more premiums, copays, maximums…It would save everyone immeasurable amounts of money because we would stop paying the middle man and equity firms.

We need medicaid for all.
Medicare doesn't cover everything. There are significant copays.
Senior citizens struggle with the gaps in Medicare, and those gaps are significant.
Medicaid has far fewer gaps and it includes vision and dental.

They should also GET THE SAME health care US citizens receive instead of pristine care / doctors, exclusive treatment reserved for them! Maybe if they paid the same for their policies per month, ALWAYS owing after paying copays, maybe not only will they consider us, but WHY that is?! Corporate greed

Healthcare in this country will continue to be an embarrassment until every single elected official is forced to use the exact same system. The same paperwork. The same copays. The same delays.

I want the messaging to be crystal clear. Medicare for All is not "free healthcare."
Medicare is not free. Each person pays $209/mo. And, there are copays, a modest deductible, and limits.
It is affordable. It could easily expand to universal care. But, it's not "Free." That's not the promise.

It depends on personal situation. If you can afford the copays for routine and minor emergency care, then Medicare A/B/D is fine.
For low-income seniors with Medicaid, Advantage may be zero-premium and mostly zero copays.
