GET ORIGINAL MEDICARE! If Medicare Advantage was reliable, why must you reenlist every year?

October 19, 2024 By Egberto Willies

Sorry, there was a YouTube error.

Stick with Original Medicare. Do not allow insurance agents to sell you Medicare Advantage. You would not need to sign up for it yearly if it were reliable. You don’t, with Original Medicare.

Get Original Medicare! Not Medicare Advantage.

Podcasts (Video — Audio)

Summary:

The video emphasizes Medicare Advantage’s instability, contrasting it with the reliability of Original Medicare. It critiques the marketing tactics of Medicare Advantage plans, which mislead consumers into believing they’re getting superior coverage when, in fact, they are signing up for a private insurance plan that may change annually. The video urges listeners to consider sticking with Original Medicare for consistent healthcare rather than being lured into the privatized, profit-driven system of Medicare Advantage (MA)

  • MA plans require annual re-enrollment because benefits and networks can change yearly.
  • These plans are marketed with “zero premiums” but often have hidden costs and restricted networks.
  • Original Medicare offers stable, lifelong coverage without the need for annual review.
  • MA is essentially privatized insurance, using public Medicare dollars but operating on a for-profit basis.
  • The shift toward privatizing Medicare benefits corporations, not patients, and results from political lobbying by the insurance industry.

The video critique highlights how MA reflects the broader issue of corporate influence in healthcare. Constant re-enrollment, hidden costs, and restricted choices show that profit-driven motives undermine patient care. On the other hand, Original Medicare represents a public system that prioritizes stability and fairness—exactly what is needed in a truly equitable healthcare system that serves people, not profits.
