"Your guaranteed Medicare benefits wont change whether you get them through Original Medicare or a Medicare Advantage plan.
First of all, if you've got health insurance, you like your doctors, you like your plan, you can keep your doctor, you can keep your plan" President Barack Hussein Obama
Cynics beware, I am romantic about the National Health Service; I love it.
The NHS is one of the astounding human endeavors of modern times. (Donald Berwick)

You can keep your doctor.....but your doctor will probably not keep you. They are abandoning patients with Medicare due to non-payment.
the states are claiming O care will put them in crisis by next month..that didnt take long...
Ours is as of Jan 1. Which means hubby and I will have to ‘try’ and find one who will take us. We are not only Medicare but Tricare (retired Military over 65).

Trust me...I understand. My hubby is also getting several things done. He’s at the podiatrist today for an old baseball injury that is being complicated by arthritis.
We are retired Navy too. ;-)
We have had more surgery done this year than in the past 10 years! Trying to preserve vision we’ve both had our eyelids done, I’d lost more than 50% of Peripheral vision due to sagging eyelids. Same for my hubby, he had retienitis a few years ago and can afford to lose any more vision.
I developed Peripheral neuropathy of legs and feet and I’m not a diabetic, so Medicare would not cover the orthotics need for my shoes. Discrimination pure and simple, other diseases cause Peripheral neuropathy besides diabetes.
I bet we aren’t the only old geezers getting delayed treatments or surgeries before 0’nazicare goes into effect.
