Obamacare (the Affordable Care Act) lowers drug costs by an annual average of $2100 for seniors.
With so many health uncertainties as we get older, Medicare, in its current form, works well for seniors. It is a benefit working people pay into their entire working lives. Even so, there are still reasonable premium costs seniors pay for the different parts of Medicare. Paul Ryan and the Republican House, along with Tom Price, Trump’s cabinet pick for Health and Human Services want to privatize Medicare and shift more costs to seniors. If you are a senior, or are concerned about your parents or grandparents, please read this informative AARP article and pass it on. Recommended by Deb Baughman
