Question by : Does Medicare cover dialysis on a cruise ship ?
Need this 3 days per week.

Answer by George
I don’t think they can pay for your treatment, Also i believe that Medicare will not pay for dialysis treatment on any ship.
Some private insurance comapnies might pay up to around 80% of the treatments. Maybe look into other companies to cover the treatment.
Your best bet is to get it done in US ports while you can.

www.MedicareAdvantageToday.com CLICK Here for more information or CALL now at 800-350-5358 Today we would like to talk to you about how to choose Medicare Supplement plans and how we will help you save money. As you know, Medicare consists of two parts, Medicare Part A which covers hospital services, and Medicare Part B which covers physician services. You might ask: “Is having basic Medicare not enough?” – The answer is “No”, because you would then have to pay deductibles and co-insurance: Medicare would pay 80% and you would have to pay the other 20%. Medicare Supplement plans will eliminate all the deductibles and the 20% co-insurance. Your next question might be: “How I can choose the best Medicare Supplement plan for my situation?” By law, ALL Medicare supplement plans must offer the same benefits: the ONLY difference will be the premium that you have to pay each month. Remember that premiums for Medicare Supplement plans change every year, so we will help compare your rates with other insurance companies to make sure you are paying the lowest possible rate for your plan. We understand that it is difficult and time consuming to a choose a Medicare Supplement plan so we look forward to solving all your Medicare problems. We will compare all the available plans and identify the plans that will save you the most money. At your request, we will even set up an in-home appointment to meet with you personally in the comfort of your own home. To find out more on how to make …

Question by Brownie12866: Medicare coverage…?
The phone rings and the lady of the house answers, “Hello.”
“Mrs. Sanders, please.”
“Speaking.”
“Mrs. Sanders, this is Doctor Jones at Saint Agnes Laboratory. When your doctor sent your husband’s biopsy to the lab yesterday, a biopsy from another Mr. Sanders arrived as well, and we are now uncertain which one is your husband’s. Frankly the results are either bad or terrible.”
“What do you mean?” Mrs. Sanders asks nervously.
“Well, one of the specimens tested positive for Alzheimer’s and the other one tested positive for AIDS. We can’t tell which is your husband’s.”
“That’s dreadful! Can’t you do the test again?” questioned Mrs. Sanders.
“Normally we can, but Medicare will only pay for these expensive tests one time.”
“Well, what am I supposed to do now?”
“The people at Medicare recommend that you drop your husband off
somewhere in the middle of town. If he finds his way home, don’t sleep with him.”

Question by angelb: How important is Medicare Supplement Insurance when it only covers what Medicare covers and you still pay 20%?
Best answer:
Answer by Insurance Biz CT
I don’t know what type of Medicare Supp plan you are looking at, but you can get coverage that will pay all of your Medicare deductibles and co-insurance. There are standard Medicare Supp plan designs, Plans A-J and are available in all states.
Contact a local agent that specializes in health and/or Med Supp and they will be able to guide you through this complicated issue.

Question by : Is Medicare the same thing as universal health care? Are all systems that are called Medicare run the same way?
The United States only offers Medicare to those over age 65 or with some specific conditions. Australia; Canada; France; and South Korea all use the Medicare model for their national health care systems, though. I am curious if these Medicare systems are all controlled and funded in the same way; if there is a fixed definition for “Medicare”; and how a Medicare health model differs from a single-payer, socialized model that the United Kingdom has in place, or the employer/employee co-pay model that Germany has.
Best answer:
Answer by David
medicare actually works well . everyone who uses it that i know say it,s effective. you pay a flat monthly fee when you turn 65, and are enrolled. it doesn,t pay for everything. to avoid paying out of pocket, you have to have supplemental insurance.

Question by nene: Medicare Supplement?
Do you know of a medicare supplement that does’t cost an arm and a leg?
Best answer:
Answer by Jeffrey G
No so-called “Medi-Gap” policies come cheaply…you simply have to make enough inquiries..shop around…assess your budget vs. your need to ensure you’ll get access to virtually any Doc (no question, medi-gap/supplementary health insurance policies get you noticed more than without them, rightly or wrongly), and make an intelligent and cost effective decision! You might try on-line, as well as AARP, as well as your local insurance brokerage!
GOOD LUCK!!!

Question by S F: How to stop the government from cutting medicaid, Medicare and Social Security?
If you were trying to get the public’s attention about the government making cuts to medicaid, Medicare and Social Security how would you do it?
There are many ways for the government to get the money it needs. Many large corporations do not pay their fair share of taxes. Also the money we pay in our taxes goes back to these large corporations in subsidies. We end up paying for BP and Exxon’s oil spills. We taxpayers pay for the clean-up of Superfund sites, not the polluters.
If we could get these large corporations to pay their fair share of taxes, and stop giving them our tax money, we would be able to balance our budget without having to cut important health services for the injured, the disabled, the working class, and the elderly.
The only thing I’ve been able to come up with is to have people sign this petition:
http://sanders.senate.gov/petition/?uid=c1fd7f9b-abd8-4e7a-a370-1867881259d8
If you have other suggestions, please let me know!
Entropy, why are you defending the special interests of the certain greedy corporations who dodge their taxes? I’m not asking us to tax them more. I’m asking them to pay their fair share like the other corporations are doing. You will only benefit from your point of view if you happen to own a major corporation. If you think the wealth will “trickle down” it will not. We’ve tried that already and it doesn’t work. The majority of people in this country will be hurt by these cuts because unfortunately some of us will become disabled, those of us that live long enough will retire, and in the near future some of us will lose our jobs and end up on medicaid. The economy is harsh. There are many hardworking people who are trying their best to make ends meet and feed their families and have to choose between taking their child to the doctor versus getting that child food versus heating/cooling their apartment. Do you know that charity care is bankrupting hospitals around the country?
If medicaid goes under, which it will if it loses any more money, all those people will flood the emergency rooms and apply for charity care. Hospitals can’t afford this. States can’t afford this. And it clogs the emergency rooms up which slows down their reaction to true emergencies. Have you ever been on medicaid? Most doctors don’t accept it because they only reimburse doctors 30 percent of their entire bill! So people are force to travel far distances to go to clinics – and many times they don’t even go because they can’t afford the gas or bus fare to get there. Medicaid needs MORE money not less money and a whole restructuring.
