Congressional lawmakers so far have failed to agree on a way to stave
off an unprecedented premium increase for millions of Medicare
recipients for 2016.
That is creating uncertainty for many
seniors on Medicare Part B, which covers outpatient care such as
doctor’s visits. About 30% of the roughly 52 million people enrolled in
Part B could see a 52% rise in those premiums if Congress and the Obama
administration don’t find a way to freeze or reduce the increase.
The Social Security administration said Thursday that there won't be a cost-of-living increase for Social Security benefits, which means the projected increase in the Part B premiums will occur unless there is a fix.
No inflation huh? Healthcare inflation is through the roof, and getting much worse. The reason I continue and will continue to post Healthcare related material on my blog is to inform you and above all help you keep an open mind and hopefully take personal stock of your own health.
Going forward my friends many people will NOT be able to afford Healthcare, this is why I have said and will continue to say "stay healthy my friends".
