November 5, 2009

I am sick over a recent decision by my primary care doctors to drop Medicare. They have asked me to sign up to a new program which will average $3000 more a year for me and my wife. This is over and above our Medicare insurance payments and my supplemental carrier insurance payments which costs $9600 yearly for me and my wife.
My alternative is to find another primary care doctor who accepts Medicare however doctors are leaving Medicare and there are fewer and fewer available to me and my wife and those that remain, are refusing to accept new patients.
It is as if everything is against we seniors.
Please don't vote for a Health Care program that will further deteriorate our ability to obtain respectable doctor care.
I plead that you at view the following video which mentions why our medical care is in further jeopardy.
