There are TV commercials all the time for “Yes you may be on Medicaid, but you’re only on Medacaid part A, what you really need to not die in agony is Medicaid part C. Why is everyone not just automatically on that plan? Shut the fuck up and go fill out several days worth of forms.”
Part C is a privatised program in which the government hands over your Medicare money to UnitedHealthcare or whomever so that they can instead put you on basically just a dogshit marketplace plan. You then have to deal with all of the worst problems of insurance in exchange for… Uhhh… Maybe a couple added benefits like super limited dental coverage?
