A huge Medicare cut looms for doctors and Medicare patients. Who might that affect? People like grandma - and those who love her, as the child in this video shows.
Unless Congress acts, on Jan. 1 doctors who care for Medicare patients face a 27.4-percent pay cut, because of a flawed funding formula called the SGR. Then millions of seniors (like grandma) and people with disabilities -- and military families whose insurance is TRICARE -- might have trouble finding a doctor's care.

  • Nicely done. As a physician, I know how important it is to get this message out!  We have NO VOICE in Washington.

  • I'm a grandma who can never get new lenses for my glasses, and need them since 2000 was my last prescription

    bad medicare coverage

  • This video is great, easy for people to get. The message needs to get across to as many people as possible. Power back to the Docs & more importantly the people, before the government messes it up.

  • Out of the mouth of babes! I'm sending this to everyone!
