Here is a note from American Progressive who offers PFFS plans to 190,000 Medicare beneficiaries nationally and 18,000 in Pennsylvania, alone.
URGENT MESSAGE — Vote NO on H.R. 6331
Contact Pennsylvania Senator Specter TODAY.
In the next several hours, the Senate will begin to vote on the final H.R. 6331 Medicare bill. This bill would make major detrimental changes to Private Fee-for-Services plans (PFFS) by 2011 and may negatively impact Universal American, our 190,000 PFFS beneficiaries nationwide, and our agents.
Early reports indicate that Senator Specter from the state of Pennsylvania will be a key deciding vote on the passage of this legislation.
We urge all agents to contact Senator Specter (PA) in his Washington office at (202) 224- 4254 and remind him of the 18,000 UA beneficiaries in the state of Pennsylvania who will be forced out of their plans if this bill is enacted.
Leave a message stating:
“I ask you to oppose changes to Medicare Advantage and vote against HR 6331.”
