    Star Ratings mean nothing trying to get into the MAYO Clinic. TrumpMSA Medicare rating is only 2 starts and Medicare enrollees may use the physicians and hospitals of their choice, it’s federal law. But other Medicare HMOs, that pay NOTHING if a sick woman desperately trying to survive goes out of network for specialized treatment, will get higher than 2 stars because they are owned by Blue Cross, a giant Government Monopoly.

    Trump’s MSA in Medicare gets only a 2 Star rating because Hillary hates the MSA and Hillary has tons of pull yet. Hillary is already saying Trump is trying to steel the 2024 Election. Medicare just loves Hillary-Style HMOs that pay NOTHING when sick Grandmothers go out-of-network. These poor baldheaded Grandmothers feel trapped like rats. Everybody knows ultra-left-wing-liberal-AARP will slam them on auto-decline if they try to wiggle on a Medicare Supplement because of their evil eye and ever-present medical underwriting. AARP doesn’t care. AARP is only in it for the money.

    But, President Trump is like Superman saving uninsurable Grandma! Trump knows the tax-free MSA in Medicare is the ONLY solution to the pre-existing problem in Medicare!

    But the biased left-wing FAKE News and Dr. Goodman refuse to acknowledge TrumpMSA is the ONLY game in town. Dr. Goodman says, “TrumpMSA dotcom is the last train to Hicksville!”

For many years, our health care blog was the only free enterprise health policy blog on the internet. Then, when the NCPA closed its doors, the health blog stopped as well.

During this five-year hiatus no one else has come forward to claim the space. So, my colleagues and I have decided to restart the blog in connection with the Goodman Institute. We invite you and others to use this forum to share your views.

John C. Goodman,
