To the Editor,
Medicare’s goal is to have all traditional Medicare recipients in managed care arrangements by 2030 - see https://innovation.cms.gov/strategic-direction-whitepaper, page 13. That’s bureaucratic speak for privatizing Medicare. The millions of people on Medicare will be shifted against their will to programs in which commercial middlemen can profit by reducing the amount of care they receive.
