I reported to Doug Badger and Grace-Marie Turner in 2022 that Medicare.gov is not warning seniors that when they go out of NETWORK with an HMO – the HMO pays NOTHING! If there is a choice of 20 plans the way that Medicare.gov shows seniors their choices is to start by showing the cheapest and most dangerous HMO 1st and say, “OH! LOOK” a FREE dental cleaning! NO WARNING – No Full and Proper Disclosure. It’s like the guy in the Movie Idiacracy is in charge!
Badger tries to tie all [Surprise Bills] with EMERGENCIES, and he is piss poor at it.
Agents Need Full and Proper Disclosure and anything short is a serious Ethics Violation. But I guess when the State is the Salesperson then there are no laws anymore.
Badger should hang it up. He NEVER said, “Go out of Network with an HMO you get NOTHING!” That garbage he wrote for brainwashing was way too long and boring. Brainwash me into thinking EMERGENCIES create Surprise Billing, that’s hog wash!
Why do donors give to the Heritage for this swill? I guess they rake in $130 million per year!
Also, I heard that the Ukrainian wounded in Britain are racing back to the Ukranian hell-hole because medical appointment times were much shorter than in England, land of highest breast cancer deaths with women. Socialized Medicine and HMOs save by makeing people wait a year to see the doctor. Government medicine sucks.
Centene, the largest company in Obamacare and Medicaid, has the FOSTER children in Chicago and these poor children have to wait over a year to see a doctor and Illinois is paying Centene $15 billion per year! The FAKE News media won’t write about it because it’s government healthcare so no doctor or dental appointments for the poorest children even though the taxpayers have paid billions and billions for children.
The Government just needs a recording that says, “Call us again next month and see if new people are being added to the list.” The Conservatives are in control in England, it’s bad.
Thanks for the Doug Badger article on surprise billing. It was a superb summary of the new law — both its moral strength (i.e. balance billing for ER care is essentially evil),
but also of its convoluted arbitration procedures.
I had to chuckle at the account of Congress finding $196 million of insurance savings in the original bill…..Medicare alone spends over $2 billion a day, so this ‘found savings’ covers about two hours worth of federal costs.
