Dear Friend,
Thank you so much for being part of the Center for Medicare Advocacy’s community and connecting with our work to enhance Medicare coverage for all Medicare beneficiaries. As we approach the end of the year, I’m reflecting on what we have accomplished together in 2023.
Thanks to the generous support of our community, the Center has provided critical legal assistance on behalf of older adults and people with disabilities who rely on Medicare to access health care. We have fought tirelessly to protect and strengthen Medicare, advocating for policies that ensure health equity and access to quality, affordable health care in the right setting. We have also worked to hold insurance companies accountable, fighting against denials of coverage and unfair billing practices. But our work is far from over.
As we look ahead to 2024, we know there will be familiar challenges to face – including our ongoing battle to fully implement the Jimmo v. Sebelius Settlement, ensuring that Medicare beneficiaries are not required to improve to qualify for coverage of skilled care, our efforts to obtain Medicare-covered home health care, and our work to equalize traditional Medicare and Medicare Advantage. We are also committed to supporting the Inflation Reduction Act, which dramatically cuts drug prices for Medicare beneficiaries.
As Medicare gets increasingly complicated and the Medicare population grows, our work also gets more demanding. That’s why I am asking for your support. A donation to the Center goes directly toward funding our legal services, advocacy efforts, and educational programs and resources. With your help, we can continue to ensure that Medicare remains a fair, strong, and reliable source of health care coverage for current and future generations.
Please consider making a donation before the end of the year to help the Center carry out our vital work by clicking here. We are grateful for your generosity and look forward to continuing to make an impact together.
All best regards,
Judy Stein
Executive Director
