  1. "Whoops, Medicare Advantage Costs Taxpayers 22% More"

    If you're a US taxpayer, thank me for not being on that shitshow that is Medicare Advantage.

    I'm on Medicare. I could be on Medicare Advantage, but I passed.

    It seems the only "advantage" to be found in this program is for the insurance companies.

  2. "Older Americans Feel Trapped in Exploitative Medicare Advantage Plans"

    I'm on Medicare. I decided to not take the Medicare Advantage plans, because of the horror stories I heard.

    If you read the article, you see one guy who at first was fine with his insurance, but then he got a lesion and things went sour pretty quick at that point.

    This is one of the utterly shitty aspects of our healthcare system (in the US): you have to pull a crystal ball out of thin air and predict what you're going to need.

    This is true for everyone. It is just more painful for some people than others.
