Dental coverage would make a huge difference in health outcomes.
-
If our Senators and Representatives had to accept Medicare as there retirement coverage, things would change in a heartbeat.
-
It is insane there isn't vision and dental for seniors.
-
Actually seniors need hearing aids; dental and eye care. Our government continues to charge us to pay into Medicare and then charge a ridiculous amount for all 3 of the above. It’s outrageous but these politicians get everything covered for life!
-
We need Dental and Vision Care....
-
Hearing aids, dental, glasses, meds this what seniors need
-
If Congress and senate were on Medicare and SS I bet it would be great!
-
Seniors need all of this to be covered under original Medicare and not an Advantage Plan which is a rip off.
-
For the price we pay...at a minimum basic dental and eye exams should be covered, as both of those are key elements of general health care!

I just retired after working 34 years as a respiratory therapist and I have to say, I always bitched "why do these older people always wait unti their last breath to get into the ER!??? Well , NOW I KNOW ! Medicare that they have work and paid into their (and MY) entire lives and careers ...DOESNT PAY FOR SHIT ! They cant afford to come in until they are afraid they might die for F's sake ! This has been an eye opening slap in the face to pay all of those years and now I am paying so much , hundreds , for any tests or necessary things I need to get done ! And seeing I only have one perscription and didnt want to pay more for coverage than that one perscription costs I will be charged even more if I decide to get the coverage later on.... they are scamming seniors !!! This is sad ! It actually seems criminal !
-
Medicare should be free for anyone on social security and it needs to cover meds, dental, eye exams and glasses as well as hearing aids.
-
who the hell can afford 8,000 out of pocket for drugs on 1300 a month?
-
YOU worked DAMN NEAR ALL OF YOUR LIFE, PAY INTO MEDICARE AND WHEN YOU RETIRED STILL PAYING THEM (MORE MONEY I SHOULD ADD) AND THEY HAVE THE AUDACITY TO SAY, ONE STILL PAYS CO-PAY, 20% of HOSPITAL FEES, (THEY DON'T COVER THIS/THEY DON'T COVER THAT)!!! INCREASE YEARLY!!! WHY ARE WE PAYING THEM ANYTHING?!!!!!!!!!
-
They need to cover full dentures for heart reasons that affects health when your teeth are bad that can have big issues on your heart.
-
Medicare does not pay for what truly costs seniors far too much . Dental or reasonable dental insurance and hearing aids. These elderly go without
-
They have to send 60 BILLION to foreign countries who never paid a penny into it. Thats why they won't help seniors! They are covered 100 percent. Why not seniors!!!???
-
Time for dental to be covered. Not fully. Most will want $30,000 worth of work done. Just basic coverage would be nice. Cleaning, fillings and extractions. Give us seniors something.
-
The fact you are required to take a Prescription Plan....and when you hit $8000m its ridiculous for seniors on a fixed income
-
Bariatric surgery is ridiculous! Seniors need eyes, dental, hearing exams! Older seniors also need toenail trimming from a professional. Ugh. Frustrating.
-
Our senior citizens deserve top notch care and coverage. Our system disgusts me.
