Dear Editor:
Rural access to health care has never been simpler than with Medicare Advantage.
With Medicare Advantage, I know that I get quality care and peace of mind. Not only do I have affordable premiums that protect my hard-working dollars, but I also have access to benefits and programs that give me the services I need from the comfort of my ranch.
With Medicare Advantage, I have more assurance that I am enrolling in a responsible and quality program. I am 1 of 30 million Americans who pays an average monthly premium of just $18.
I have access to dental, vision, and hearing, but I also can take advantage of a wide range of telehealth services. Medicare Advantage has numerous plans available for rural Americans, like me, that deliver the care I need without having to drive hundreds of miles for the nearest provider.
Medicare Advantage is a step in the right direction for affordable and quality health care. Lawmakers should continue to protect a program that delivers for Montana seniors and all around our great nation.
Sincerely,
Rich Jespersen
