Marianne Pizzitola didn’t intend to become a leading expert in the finer details of municipal health plans. True, the retired New York City EMT had a front-row seat for decades into the kind of suffering so many go through. But like so many others, it wasn’t until 9/11 that her life really began to change.
The scam here is by Wendell Potter. 911 and Medicare Advantage have nothing to do with each other. Medicare Advantage is a popular and successful program in which nearly 50% of all Medicare recipients are enrolled. It provides more benefits and lower out of pocket costs than traditional Medicare for the same cost. 48 peer reviewed studies have concluded that Medicare Advantage provides better quality care than traditional Medicare where doctors are paid by the volume of services they provide, thereby incentivizing them to provide more care rather than better care.

Such a scam. My lord. Is there any judgment call mayor Adams will get right?!
