Sure. What I want is an expansion of the already-existing Medicare / Medicare Advantage / Medicare Supplement system to all. An already-functioning private/public health care payment and delivery system that is working well by providing excellent public-covered preventive and diagnostic coverage and dynamic free market competition and innovation.please actually think about what you say you want.
Some tweaks I'd like to see include lower public Medicare coverage and higher private MA/Supplement buy-in and coverage for younger people with age-based step-ups to maintain flatter costs for both program and participant. That's an idea you haven't seen anywhere else.
Having taken annual Medicare/MA/Supplement training for several years, having helped many advisory clients in the process of choosing plans, having worked with a Fortune 100 insurer from the financial side for several years as they put together MA plans piece by piece in my state, and having worked with many business owner clients as they struggle to pay for group plans, I would say I have thought a great deal about this, as well as having had many discussions about it with peers, and know far more about the system than most people.
My opinions are based specifically on significant training and many years of professional hands-on experience in this area, and not on partisan political ideology.
And yes, I advocate for adding four new and higher personal income tax brackets to 59.9%, as I point out in the link at the end of the second line of my sig.
