Ambulance services and, under certain circumstances, even helicopter rides can be provided by Part B of Medicare. This according to the latest government publication: Your Medicare Benefits 2024.

In the Medicare Advantage Minute we hear sickening reports of the billions of $$ that have been siphoned off by this program as well as the pathetic efforts used to collect overpayments from the miscreants.

How about some special enrollment opportunities? Listen to a lengthy, albeit confusing, array of periods in which certain rules of enrollment welcome certain segments of the Medicare eligible population to snatch their opportunity!

The story on the state of the Canadian system made reference to one Greg Price. He was a 31 year-old pilot from Alberta who was allowed to die in 2018 from testicular cancer due to the ineptitude inherent in their single payer Communist health system.

Take a peek back in the crystal ball at AEP 2024. Pundits predicted turmoil and they were right!

Medicare Advantage Minute headline:

HCA Medical System sees way too many prior authorization denials!

This Nashville based health system (with 186 hospitals and 2400 care sites in 20 states and the UK) is fighting back against the intense Medicare Advantage pressure of prior authorization service denials: trying to beat them at their own game!
