Today's speech by @BernieSanders on #MedicareForAll didn't do a great job hitting the major concerns of seniors on current medicare. It did MUCH better than previous speeches but missed a couple crucial selling points. /2

The pain points for seniors on medicare right now that #Medicareforall SOLVES are:

No more drug copays
No fees
No supplemental insurance needed
No dental
No vision
No hearing
No long term care

1/5
Go to the 24 hour pharmacy to pick up a script, they tell me they can't fill it because it needs a prior authorization suddenly, I had no notice of this from either the doctor, the insurance company, or even the pharmacy despite their texts to pickup 2/5

It is midnight on a Friday, I use this 24 hour pharmacy because it is convenient for my sometimes crazy schedule. I look on the back of my UnitedHealthcare card and call the member number, navigate the call system, they're closed after 7pm and all weekend.
