“What does Medicare have to do with groceries ?”

I had an almost-heart-attack due to the Trump vaccine and the cardiologist who briefly treated me registered me with medicare as a heart patient. I never saw him again, but the following year my medicare advantage plan gave me $300 in free groceries.

The answer to your question is medicare should have nothing at all to do with groceries, and that’s why I say it can be trimmed. It has become bloated. My poor boss at work has a $7500 annual deductible before he can get any Obamacare medical benefits at all, while I pay $0 to see the doctor, and used to get free groceries. They took away my groceries after I refused to see the cardiologist any more.

I see I posted before I saw your replt. Still don’t think it makes a difference. the groceries are just a benefit of your Advantage plan being offered by the company you signed up with and I don’t think have anything to do with Medicare Part A or B.
