Busting the Medicare “Crisis” Myth – Again

I’ll be presenting to the Senior Coordinating Aging Network (SCAN) – Wayne County  Thursday, January 23, 2014.   It’s a slightly shorter version of the the Busting the Medicare Myths I gave last fall. I’ll be showing how a lot of the rhetoric about the future of Medicare and the Federal budget deficit is fear-mongering intended to cut benefits for seniors. The reality is more complex and less fearful.

The public is welcome. From the announcement:
