What’s Going On With Congress & Health Care?

Описание: Congress has still not acted to lower health insurance costs for next year. Two competing bills failed in the Senate, and now it’s the U.S. House’s turn. Margarida Jorge from ‪@HealthCare4AmericaNow‬ explains what’s happening in Congress and how it affects our health care in this #CareTalk episode with show host & cancer survivor myself of ‪@healthcarevoices‬‪@MSWMediaPods‬.

Also Louise Norris of ‪@HealthinsuranceOrg‬ and Diane Archer of Just Care & ‪@SocialSecurityWorks‬ answer your health insurance questions on Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, private insurance and more.

This episode has more on Affordable Care Act open enrollment which ends soon, what to do about a Medicare late enrollment penalty, a health insurance salesperson that lied about what medications are covered, and problems with Medicare Part D.
