I help a lot of people navigate their enrollment in to part B and almost all my clients are dealing with the same local SS office .Pre DOGE a special part B enrollment was getting processed within 2 weeks now it more like 2 months .

I'm sorry what's nice about it? I'm not engaging in the politics, just asking if anyone else affected.It's never been an issue before so DOGE is the only thing that's changed. I'm not about that life so if you have a politic aim direct it else where.
