| ObamaCare Deals Seniors Another Blow |

|
AMAC fought Obamacare before this law was passed| On January 1, 2014, ObamaCare cut nearly $22 billion from Medicare home health care over four years. That means an estimated 3.5 million poor and ill homebound senior citizens woke up on New Year’s Day to discover that ObamaCare had slashed funding for their home health care program.
Last year, Medicare home health services were delivered to NEAR 3.5 million Medicare beneficiaries. According to the federal government’s own data, these seniors are older, poorer and sicker than the Medicare beneficiary population as whole. Many of these seniors also reside in rural communities, where home health care is especially important because other sources of treatment are often located many miles away. Put more plainly, 4-in-10 of all the providers on whom homebound seniors depend face the threat of bankruptcy and closure as a result of ObamaCare. That’s 5,000 home health care companies and 500,000 jobs wiped out in order to pay for ObamaCare. YES! You guessed it; this came to me as an ad. That though, my conservative friend, does not negate the truth, nor the propriety of taking action to bail on AARP! Join AMAC! I am; I can’t count the number of times (while driving) I made notes to myself about! Of course, this is merely one MORE example of how ObamaCare is hurting American citizens, affecting American businesses and impacting American jobs. AMAC, the Association of Mature American Citizens, is leading the charge to rescind this reprehensible attack on America’s seniors and small businesses. We have always believed that ObamaCare was a destructive and costly monstrosity – and we support a full repeal. Join the AMAC Army today and spread the word to friends, family and neighbors – help us fight government overreach and unaccountable Federal spending in the nation’s Capital with greater strength in numbers! |
