1.4.1: Medicare
Stop paying crooks and offer seniors new choices in Medicare. Other Information:
MEDICARE First, stop paying the crooks. An estimated $70 to $120 billion a year is paid to crooks by Medicare and Medicaid.
This is the best place to save money at no cost to honest people. My proposed legislation will offer seniors new choices in
Medicare, as well. It will give them the option to choose, on a voluntary basis, either to remain on the existing program,
or to transition to a more personalized system in the private sector with greater options for better care. If they select
the personalized system, beneficiaries would receive support to cover their private sector premiums. Giving all seniors the
option to choose their insurance provider will improve price competition and help lower costs for the program.
