The federal government pays more to cover each Medicare Advantage participant than for seniors under traditional Medicare. The government had planned a 1.9 percent cut in the next budget year, but the Washington Post reported this month that the decision was reversed, and payments will now increase an average of 0.4 percent.
Obamacare was generally popular. One woman said she liked it because her son, who was previously uninsurable because of heart problems, now has health coverage. I dont have any complaints, she said.
A man who said he was in the insurance business said hes found health coverage under Obamacare is too expensive. And a woman who said she lost her job and is living with her mother to take care of her said she cant afford Obamacare.
When Scott was chief executive of Columbia/HCA, the company was found guilty of inflating Medicare bills and paid a $1.7 billion fine.
