I think we agree that the projected savings are questionable. The savings from cuts to MA providers is real, with no likely impact on patients.

But it still means no cuts in eligibility or benefit levels.....at least in these bills.

Which we also agree is unsustainable in the long-term.

Which is why there needs to be a hard look at entitlement programs -- Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid -- but, IMO, in a separate discussion.
