I am new tothis page. I am a senior with a medicare advantage plan.I am for healthcarereform so that all American citizens can have access to a health plan.If this plan does not go through without a public option and the pre existing part is not enforced after they terminate Medicrae Advantage I wiil be locked out of any plan.If you are a member of the younger generation I ask you to speak with your grandparents who may be in a similar situation to see if they are aware of the implications of their choices.With the public option I will be able to BUY with money a plan.This is a choice.When I have this plan I will deal with doctors as I do now.By the way Medicare is agoverment plan .It works very well and was not wanted by the Republican party in 1963.They called it socialism and said the same things they are saying about Obama's plan. Askk your grandparents if they are happy with Medicare.May we speak without anger and vitriol an with consideration of all opinions.
