MEDICARE: Send message to feds

This is an open letter to all senior citizens. If you are having a difficult to impossible time locating a general care doctor who still accepts new Medicare patients, it is because the same government we trusted with our paycheck withdrawals so we would have health coverage in our older years is NOT paying the doctors.

It is time to fight back by writing a letter to our congressman, Walt Minnick, at 1900 Northwest Blvd., Coeur d’Alene, 83814. Tell him to stop the sustainable rate growth formula or he will lose your vote this November. Remember: Apathy, we lose. Together, we win! Write your letter today.
