Anyone watching the mass gov’t cuts everywhere and you think Medicare will be left alone? Lol

You're right there cutting fraud and abuse . Perfect example is United healthcare stock down $40 this am as doj investing massive fraudulent over billing in its mapd . They're saying unh ( and all carriers ) used fraudulent billing codes to falsely bill billions of extra money , How this affects agents is if we make a lot less than you make a lot less or none . It's no different than any other industry . When profitability falls big everyone effected . Mapd's going nowhere but comp structure will .

So you are saying that fraud should continue to be overlooked so your comp won't be reduced?

We are at the point in the cycle where you all are now ok with a reduction in commissions. Hilarious.

"In the months after the 2024 election and before President Donald Trump's second inauguration, healthcare executives paid millions of dollars to get the ear of the president." Trump can be bought

Big Pharma benefitted by an additional $6B during just the first year of his first term corporate tax cuts. They have lots left in the coffers to thank him.

What cycle is that?

Exactly. They are cutting fraud, waste, and abuse. One of the reasons the Medicare fund was always running out is because of the aforementioned fraud, waste, and abuse.

And also because the Democrat-run government of 12 of the last 16 years has squeezed the ever-loving shit out of insurance companies, and not allowed them to make much of a profit in the health insurance arena. This is, of course, out of blind hatred of all things insurance and private business.

With Trump in office, there is gonna be so much money flowing back into the health insurance sector, people aren't even gonna know what to do. This is one MAJOR thing never registers with my friends across the political aisle.

Trump recently cut 90% funding for those useless "navigators." That's a savings of like $350 MILLION dollars. That's all money that's gonna go to make plans better, and will give the insurance companies more money to work with. Next up for major cuts will be useless redundant government SHIP.

As we saw from 2017-2021 (the Trump years), when the plans are properly funded, and the insurance companies have some extra money to play with, the plan benefits get WAY better, and the commissions also get WAY better.

Stop worrying.

Navigators are for ACA plans and the question addressed Medicare.

I understand, but it highlights what he is going after.

The healthcare system is about to be over-burdened with measles and polio cases, so any savings from cuts will be used up elsewhere.
