In Texas, it is difficult to find doctors who accept medicare patients.
In SW Florida most physicians are going to a conceirge service. They won’t take medicare, medicaid or insurance. To keep our long time family physician we have to pay a $2,000/year upfront fee to remain his patients.
Then again, in the last few years when you walk into his waiting room his “new” clients all spoke Spanish and came in as a “family unit” for him to cure everyone from Grandma down to the baby in the womb.
Obamacare is going to have the tail wagging the dog. Nobody is going to get good care. All of this for folks on the dole.
Same here in Raleigh.
My Dr moved. I’ve not been able to find a replacement.
As soon as I mention Medicare they say sorry.
Warning, anyone nearing retirement age, find a Dr or stick with the one you have.
