Expand Medicare to include home care, dental, hearing, and vision
To: Rep. Beyer
From: A constituent in Arlington, VA
November 18
As your constituent, I'm writing about the urgent need to expand Medicare coverage. My parent, despite having dual coverage, struggles to afford essential services Medicare doesn't cover - including home care, dental work, hearing aids, and vision care.
These coverage gaps force seniors in our district to make impossible choices between basic healthcare and daily necessities. This is both cruel and fiscally irresponsible, as delayed care leads to costly complications.
I urge you to support legislation expanding Medicare to cover these essential services. Please tell me your position and what specific actions you'll take to address this crisis.
