[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5056195, member: 58386"] The title of thread says it does. And in keeping with that fact I would have you to know that I've have had both COVID vaccinations along with the booster AND a seasonal flu shot....All received in accordance with the directives issued by my Medicare Advantage plan provider. The TOTAL cost to Medicare?... $210. That's less than 2 months worth of Medicare premiums. You can't even get a cross town ambulance ride for $210 let along weeks in ICU fighting for your life with COVID. And this coming Monday again at the direction of MA I am meeting with the surgeon for the initial consultation prior to undergoing cancer screening. Now let me introduce you to a term that is obviously new to you....It's called Preventative Medicine. Trying to avoid acute medical care later on.... And most important of all the savings for the Medicare Trust Fund are ENORMOUS! And you're the one who is always hollering your head off about the government spending too much money and coming from a guy who by his own admission hasn't paid a dime in FIT in years. Yet simply by following the preventative medicine guidelines I'm actually DOING something to try and save it a little bit by simply trusting the process. [/QUOTE]
