Ask Your Congress To Support Disabled Americans and Senior Citizens - Remove Medicare Caps

Contact your congressman and senator to support S. 3912/HR. 6132.

It's important that we support our disabled and senior Americans out there in whatever way possible. The following bills in the Senate and House just does that by allowing exceptions to Medicare caps for physical therapy and speech therapy.

In the past, disabled citizens and seniors would not be able to go to outpatient rehabs after they exhaust $1,800 worth of Medicare benefits. What that translates to is a person recovering from a stroke or a patient with major hip surgery can only go for about two months and after that, despite not being well or fully functional, they are no longer allowed to come back to the clinic.

A cap is an injustice, especially for folks that have paid their Medicare benefits since the day they started working. Secondly, socialistic policies for people that are able to work isn't good; however, we as a people should do our best to support and protect those that are not able to fend for themselves.
