Help cut health and dental costs for senior citizens
- van: YYV
- ontvanger: The President
It is a shame that in these times our senior citizens can not afford the high costs of medications, health or dental care. There are to many of them out there who are faced with choices when it comes down to care of how are they going to afford this.
When senior citizens reach retirement age and are living on social security the deducible for medicare is high and there is no real dental coverage. Also any time you get an increase in your SSI benefits they take out more for your medicare and do not even offer you any better coverage. Then they have to rely on sublemental health insurnace coverages and some are discount plans which is like going to a high dollar store with a 3.00 off coupon.
Please sign this petition and ask our president to provide our senior citizens with a health, prescription, eye care and dental plan coverages that would be afforable to all.
We the undersigned would love for you to help out the senior citizens of the United States. As you may know, there are so many of our senior citizens out there unable to get proper medical care since they are living on fixed incomes. Some senior for go getting medical care which could save their lives because they can not afford to do so. While others live in unbearable conditions just so they can afford some health care or prescriptions.
It is harder for the seniors who live on SSI because if their benefits increase so does their deduction for payment towards medicare. Also some senior citizens who make a certain income on SSI are considered to be recieving to much money to get any supplemental help from the goverment.
Please, Mr. preseident, help our senior citizens by making a bill to help promote better health, eye, dental, and precription coverages avavilable to them with a low deductible and no or very low co pay.
