Good Talks: The Coming Insolvency of the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund & Medicare w/ Elise Amez-Droz
Our guest today is Elise Amez-Droz who brings her experience with health care policy to talk about the looming insolvency of the Hospital Insurance Trust Fund, the funding mechanism for Medicare Part A, and how the date of that failure keeps moving closure with current events. Elise explains what got us to this point, why no one seems willing to talk about or do anything to avert the crisis, and what it means for the country if the "trust fund" fails.
