Reforming Medicare




« back to classes page
ClassGraphic
As we all get older, we increasingly rely on Medicare to pay for our healthcare. But as we use this system, we become acutely aware of its problems. To fully understand Medicare issues, we will start by gaining an appreciation of the U.S. healthcare system’s structure and how basic health insurance works. We will then address such topics as the history, organization, and sources and uses of funds for each part of Medicare. With this knowledge, participants will offer and debate suggestions about how each component can be improved. Throughout, the linkages among these parts will also be highlighted. Each week we will examine a different part of Medicare: Part A, Part B, Part D, and finally Medicare Advantage. Join us as we learn more about this important program and discuss ways to improve it.
