I wonder how many thousands were “accidentally” put in Medicaid.

It’s nice to see Dave Freddoso making the rounds in print, as always.

Doesn't Medicare come with an obligation to pay the money back? That would enslave a person way beyone their Medicare eligibility, I'd think.

It is baffling and bizarre that anyone could be in a plan without signing something.

Sorry, I typed “Medicare” but it’s “Medicaid” that has the pay-back provision.

That’s MEDICAID and it’s been that way for years. Why shouldn’t the taxpayer be reimbursed for paying your bills?

Don’t get insurance through the exchanges and you won’ be forced into Medicaid.

Of course the Medicaid recipient should pay back when they can. The problem being discussed here is that Rand Paul’s son was signed up for Medicaid without being asked.

I’m well aware of that,but they used the exchange to sign up. As I said in my previous post this wouldn’t have happened if they hadn’t used the exchange.

Given my confidence in Senator Paul's intelligence, I suspect he knew that.

BINGO! Let's hit the Sunday shows with the evidence.

And I don't fault him a bit. In fact, I laud him.

Exactly the same thing that happened to Senator Paul happened to me on the California exchange! I tried to sign up for me, my wife, and our infant son. I was told my son does not qualify for Medi-Cal (the California version of Medicaid), which was fine with me because I didn’t want my son enrolled. But just a couple of days ago we got a Medi-Cal card with my son’s name on it!

Meanwhile, the application I submitted on Dec 7 still hasn’t been processed and our family’s health insurance status is a mystery.
