83. A lot of people don't understand that Medicate Advantage is not Medicare

They shouldn't be able to use that misleading name. It's not Medicare, there is no Advantage.

This is what you get when government programs are privatized: For profit companies deny benefits; they aren't in it for you. MA was a trick to privatize a beloved government program while not really telling people what is going on. And Trump and the GOP want to keep MA and get rid of the real Medicare.

I get calls all the time from people offering me "help" getting my Medicare benefits. When I ask if they are from the government of a private company they refuse to answer, or say no to both. They are professional scammers. The Medicare Advantage plans I see advertised just claim better benefits, and never come out and say they are private.
