Stop Medicare Advantage Cheats. Enact Medicare for All.

I am your constituent and I just learned how private insurance companies are gaming the Medicare Advantage system and overbilling the US government. This is not Medicare, it is private insurance and we pay them over $1000/month to provide insurance for seniors. They deny prior authorizations (6%) and provide less healthcare than traditional Medicare, and are overbilling on the order of $140 billion in 2022 alone. Here is a link to a report from Physicians for a National Health Plan on the subject. PLEAE READ IT. https://pnhp.org/system/assets/uploads/2023/09/MAOverpaymentReport_Final.pdf?eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=41d22552-20ff-488c-b5a0-189f9f2765fc You can fix this by enacting the Improved Medicare for All system, HR 3421. No private insurance, cradle to grave coverage, no copays/deductibles to dissuade people from going to the doctor. You can fix this and I want you to do it.
