Medicare Advantage is not Medicare. They are private plans run by corporations for the purpose of extracting as much money out of Medicar beneficiaries and the government as possible. It is private insurance and a Republican plan to destroy actual Medicare. It costs taxpayers a lot more than actual

The private insurance companies are the problem with medicals needs. My medical needs should be between me and my doctor not an insurance company approving or disapproving what my DOCTOR request for me for treatment.

No. St. CHARLES is problematic to seniors' health.

THATS for sure! I was told years ago that a monopoly is illegal in the USA but apparently St Charles found its way around that. They own every single hospital and most of the clinics here.

We are very satisfied with Pacific Source Medicare Advantage. Had a Medicare Supplement plan several yrs. ago and every year the cost went up according to age plus had to buy a separate RX plan. Very relieved to not have to shop for a very expensive alternative to Adva. Thank you Pacific Source.

We need extra financial help as we get older. It's a fact of life and Healthcare systems need to change with it. Improve themselves for everyone involved not just a select few.
