Judy - FOR SURE keep your retirement insurance as your secondary insurance. Medicare only pays 80% for most things, so you really need that secondary insurance to pay that other 20%. If you have a $100,000.00 hospitalization which is not uncommon, then you are left to pay $20,000.00. Not pretty.
Gayle, I am not into politics at all, in fact i have never voted, i am ashamed to say, but isn't the president trying to cut some of the funding for madicare users? I thought i read it somewhere. or was it the medicade users, i know they want to cut funding for Planned Parenthood. Not trying to start a political post here, just asking.
