My mother is in a nursing home. Her hearing aids are not covered by Medicare nor Medicaid. She's only allowed $50 a month from her social security for so her clothes, personal items, and supplements, her eye glasses and hearing aids. $50 a month won't cover that stuff
This is no different from the State of Texas vaccination records database. Keep that private even if an individual receives care via the public system.
OMG. So many reasons. Not sure if it's mandatory but nobody wants politicians to access our private health. That's between us and our doctors. Also, something similar was done in the Adolf Mustache Man days and we know what happened then. No repeat please!
If you can give Medicaid people hearing aides you can give Medicare people hearing aides.

ReplyI'm 63 & I need hearing aids for both ears! I can't afford them on my small social security check with the other bills that I pay every month!
