Ron Said:

When would a person on Medicare & Medicaid benefit from having a medigap policy ?

We Answered:

If your Mom is receiving both Medicare and Medicaid -
Medicare is her primary policy and Medicaid is considered her medigap policy-
She would not need another medigap policy -
My brother is on Medicare and Medicaid and what Medicare doesn't pay, Medicaid picks up the 'gap".

Courtney Said:

Are these some of the hidden 'costs' of Obamacare (per the Wall Street Journal?)?

We Answered:

I find it hard to believe this is about Health Care at all. The word "mandatory" is always frightening.
To force young, healthy people to pay for health insurance, and let the old and infirm die because of cost sounds like Taxation without benefit.
One could argue this is how they plan to recoup the entirety of the Social Security money that has already been squandered away.
Robbing (Peter/Paul) thing. Pyramid scheme.
There are always hidden (from you) costs.
What "anything" done, in progress, or future thing, performed by the government ever came in on time and at/or under budget?
How many times is this scam going to work on the majority of us. Apparently, just one more, because after this one ... it will be all the money there is forever, and you still wont get a pittance of worth.

Single payer.

Any addition or including of INSURANCE Co's will double the cost, and for what? Payback for campaign contributions?

Dead weight, and the straw that breaks the back.
