Medicare doesn't cover nursing homes long term, Medicaid does. Where are the big corporations that have bought out many nursing homes? They should be screaming at Trump since over 60% of nursing home patients are on Medicaid. They should be talking to the media about what happens if funds are cut.
I have been saying that is the message people fighting the Rs trying to cut Medicaid should laser focus on. Don't want to have to feed and diaper Grandma at home in between zoom meetings? You better fight against these cuts.
The program allows people to go back to work, maybe telework or a different type of field to accommodate their needs. And if you decide within 5 years that you just can’t keep working full time, you let them know and your benefits start back up the next month.…
All participants who do work thru the 5 year grace period, are guaranteed Medicare for about 4 more years after that.
The funding for people like us to receive Medicare will be cut. Those that have back up insurance, we’ll have to change doctors, pharmacies & possible treatments….

And some people will lose the transportation benefits that come with Medicare. Caretakers will have to drive to appts instead of the patient being able to be somewhat independent by taking the provided bus. People will end up sicker and some will ultimately die with a direct tie to losing healthcare
This song is dedicated to the Trump Regime especially Rubio.
“And you never bother to wonder why
Things are going so well
You wanna know why?
Cause I'm a liar
Yeah I'm a liar
I'll tear your mind out
I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me”
Exactly just waiting for them to start kick out Alzheimer’s patients and nursing home patients for inability to pay, I hope they have families to help take care of them it goes to show if you need help too bad no one will be able to afford care
I used to bring Xmas gifts to elderly at nursing homes. Some hadn’t seen a family member in years. What to do with those evicted with no place to go. So sad
If you're really pissed off, there's a way to get your message heard loud and clear. Luigi Mangione showed the way and now CEOs in the healthcare sector tread lightly.
Only up to 100 days for skilled nursing facilities. Now Medicare will cover the cost of hospice and doctors visits for someone who is in long term care but not the cost of the facility itself.
It is probably paid by Medicaid. Medicare doesn't cover assisted care at all. It covers skilled nursing for 100 days each benefit period (year). After 20 days a co-pay kicks in.
Medicaid covers long term/nursing home care after the person being care for assets are wound down.
Also Trump. "We're going to make a couple of tweaks," Trump said of his "one big beautiful bill" during a Tuesday trip to Capitol Hill. "I mean, we don't want to benefit Democrat governors, although I would do that if it made it better, but they don't know what they're doing."
Trump on this bill. "We want to help all the states, but we have governors that are from the Democrat [sic] party, let's say New York, Illinois, big ones, and let's say Gavin 'Newscum,' who's done a horrible job in California."
Medicare doesn’t cover nursing homes. That’s Medicaid. Medicare covers REGULAR HEALTHCARE. Good luck when your parents are hospitalized for literally anything.

They will close. Hospitals will close.
This could be it.
But they'll still adore their king, no matter what. A few might peel away.
It is becoming a reality for many.
“President Trump Will Always Protect Social Security, Medicare”
He lied.
Buried inside: deregulation, surveillance creep, corporate handouts & rights rolled back.
This is not reform. It’s sabotage.
Call. Email. Show up.
Tell every rep: VOTE NO. We see the lie. We will not be silent 🌓✨

Participants in the program are helped to return to work, even at a part time basis. And eventually learn to live with the SSDI monthly payments…..

However I imagine that’s the way fascism usually works.
1. You make promises to get elected.
2. You make a plan never to face another election.
3. Then you screw everyone but your wealthy buddies.
#3 is where maga wakes up.

So TRUMP SUPPORTERS in
blue states will lose more than any of their relatives in red states.
We elected this.
And Obama was the most divisive president ever!?
Donald Trump and the Republicans are trying to bankrupt our country.
