I know...It is totally maddening that Congress insists that they screw up health care insurance for everyone else and yet they are immune to change... What really ought to happen, is that everyone call their House and Senate Reps, insist that the plans for the US are the same as for the Congress, and for all public employees with the same choices....That should spread the risk-base much larger, the companies that participate should make a profit, and that the American citizens should have good insurance. Medicare for Seniors (plus they have added the children of workers who died before 65, and the refugees who are here by Presidential Order (why this group is let in here is unknown to me, other than politics)...and did I miss any other group... Anyway, Medicare AND a Medicare Supplement which pays for costs that Medicare doesn't IF THEY ARE AN ALLOWED ITEM FOR MEDICARE.... That last is a tricky little thing...I thought the supplement would cover just about everything.....BUT that is wrong! If Medicare doesn't ALLOW THE CHARGE, then no supplement will pay for the charge.... This is an area that Congress has really written the laws, and will continue just that if we end up with Obama's socialized health care.....
