[QUOTE="Dissimilarty, post: 1520965, member: 23453"] Again, spending went down due to beneficiaries not utilizing services because of fear of corona (remember all of the stories about cancer patients, preventive screenings, empty hospitals, etc). No significant changes to benefits were made last year or this year, and judging by the amount Medicare Advantage plans are receiving per enrollee and the budget of CMS, there is no expectation of reducing benefits in the near term at the very least. In fact, the massive decrease in public health care expenditure during a "pandemic" to the point of hospitals being shuttered due to unprofitability shows just how ridiculous this all is. I hope you're right but dont see it. I think it's only the end of the beginning. [/QUOTE]
