It makes no sense that they do this. They make it mandatory that you take the Medicare then they demand to be the first payer.
WHY on earth would they do that? When you pay a private insurance company, why would the government even want to pay first leaving 20% of the bill to the private insurance company.
the reason is easy. To make people not buy private insurance and put them out of business so that the government can control all of the health care.
Medical care costs me $1300.00 a month for myself and family. It is getting right out of control. If the government wouldn’t demand Medicare I woudl be paying a lot less.
But Medicare is a VOLUNTARY program, yes, even Part A, according to federal STATUTE. The Bureaucrats, not Congress, however, have determined that if you are over 65, you should have nothing but Medicare. That’s the point of the article, if you read it.
