White House Advisor David Axelrod was asked if the $450 billion in cuts to Medicare that is proposed in the health care bill would hurt the elderly on Medicare. His answer was "No", and he went on to say those cuts were to the doctors and hospitals, not the patients.
Guess Mr Axelrod forgot - as Medicare pays doctors less and less, more and more doctors and hospitals refuse to take on medicare patients. How, exactly, does that NOT harm the elderly if they have medicare coverage, but there are no doctors or hospitals that will accept it?
