This video excerpt highlights a critical issue within the U.S. healthcare system, specifically contrasting traditional Medicare with Medicare Advantage. The speaker argues that while government waste and fraud are often discussed, corporate waste, fraud, and profiteering are frequently ignored, particularly in the context of Medicare Advantage plans. These private, for-profit plans are accused of taking public taxpayer dollars, making beneficiaries appear sicker to increase payments ("upcoding"), denying necessary care, and pocketing billions of dollars in profits instead of providing healthcare. The proposed "No Upcode Act" aims to recover these funds and reinvest them in traditional Medicare to improve care and save taxpayer money.
