Yep. As far as I know, everyone who goes on SS cancels their health insurance the same day or very shortly after.

Everyone I ever billed for doctor’s office visits had Medicare and a secondary insurance to cover the rest of the costs.

Many patients have both SS and private insurance, but I believe once they have SS their private insurance is capped mandatorily by the Feds at a low rate, and, if the doctor participates in SS, he/she is guilty of Medicare fraud if he/she accepts a co-pay to make up for the lost revenue. If a doctor opts out of Medicare, the doctor can never opt back in, and is forever thereafter ineligible to bill patients with it.
I think that’s how it works.

Are you living in a dream world. Damn you need to wake up and face reality. There those who have worked hard all of the lives and saved for retirement. They have paid into SS and then drew back on it what they paid in when they retired. I know NO ONE who willingly dropped there health insurance.
Leftist thinking again
