Democrats Ponder Cutting Medicare Advantage to Fund $3.5 Trillion Spending Bill
27th October 2021
Politico is reporting that Congressional Democrats are pondering major cuts to Medicare Advantage, a system of competing private health plans, to help pay for their massive multitrillion dollar spending bill.
This would be a bad policy. Compared to traditional Medicare, Medicare Advantage provides better benefits, lower costs, and higher quality care.
Medicare Advantage is a popular alternative to traditional Medicare. From 2011 to 2020 alone, private plan enrollment grew by 103% compared to overall Medicare growth of 28%. This year, private plans are projected to enroll over 27 million senior and disabled Americans or an estimated 43% of the total Medicare population.
The program’s rapid growth is not hard to explain. It works.
And because it works, Democrats hate it.
