According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the population of those 65 and over grew nearly 5 times faster than the total population over the 100 years from 1920 to 2020. In the year 1920 those aged 65 and over was about 1 in 20 of our population. However, in the year 2020 that number changed to about 1 in 6 people. The older population increased from 4.9 million in 1920 to 55.8 million in 2020. That represents a growth rate of 1,000%.
How can this be sustained by Social Security benefits? How will this affect health care for older Americans?
On June 8th, 2023, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services announced a new "voluntary" primary care model called, "Making Care Primary". It's being tested in 8 states. Twila Brase indicated that this plan will ration healthcare to seniors.
Twila is the president and co-founder of Citizens' Council for Health Freedom. She's a registered nurse, a certified public health nurse, and author of the eight-time award-winning book, Big Brother in the Exam Room: The Dangerous Truth About Electronic Health Records. She is the speaker on the daily Health Freedom Minute heard on stations across the nation.
Twila explained that currently there are two types of Medicare options that are offered to people when they're about to turn 65: traditional (original) Medicare and Medicare Advantage. This latter option is a health plan version of Medicare. She explained that traditional Medicare gives you the freedom to go anywhere in the nation to see any doctor or any hospital you want. There is no network.
Discussion also included: Medicare dollars for social needs and new data rules regarding so-called reproductive health care.
