All the idiots who clamor for “Medicare for all” or single payer should go visit their local V.A. hospital.

He must have been covered by Medicare and TriCare for Life.
In addition The Congress has their own GENEROUS health care plan.

McCain is very wealthy, I doubt he needs or qualifies for V.A. care.

I believe Tricare is for only fully retired sailors; I'm one of them. I don't think McCain served long enough to retire.

The Congressional plan is, as you quote, very generous. Besides, he was wealthy.

His wealth is beside the point. Congress has a “Rolls-Royce” level medical plan that costs them absolutely nothing. If he would have needed million dollar surgery they wouldn’t have batted an eye.

My wife and I both lost a leg last December. She’s on her second prosthetic, I have yet to get one.

FYI - McCain, as a retired Naval Officer - was eligible for Tri-Care for life....

As a sitting Senator - he was eligible to participate the the Federal Employment Health Benefit Program (FEHB) - and sign up for one of a wide variety of plans that were available to government workers in the D.C. area.

Voted against repealing ObamaCare, hated and vilified Trump, no kudos.

Didn't know. Doesn't matter, as others have noted, the Congressional plan was more than adequate.
