That's OK - Molalla1. I'll right in step with you in the 70-79 age group. We can both look for the rotten SOB who cut our Medicare benefits.

:thumbsup: . . . . no doubt.

What medicare benefits were cut?
I'm in the 79+ group, and have not noticed a change.

As my great mentor, a WW2 Army Ranger used to say, " No one gets out of here alive ... Let's just hope it won't be today. "

Yes Wolfman, but I have been there and done that . . . already.

I have seen a couple articles. Business Insider - MSNBC - questions being raised about how much of the TREATMENT of Corona virus will be covered by Medicaid/Medicare.

There is no dispute - private insurance, Medicaid & Medicare will cover the testing. Google - "Medicaid/Medicare vs Corona Virus".

There is no dispute - private insurance, Medicaid & Medicare will cover the testing.

Sooner or later. See this rant ..."Im awaiting permission from the federal government to allow for my testing, even after my physician and county health professional ordered it. " ... by a nurse who is ill and quarantined, after caring for a Coronavirus patient. She doesn't meet the criteria to qualify for the test because she was wearing proper protective gear.

Related - has the reported number of people tested on that cruise ship increased? Last I saw was 21 cases found out of a total 47 (?) tested.
