FORTUNE: In less than a year, Trump erased 12 years of solvency for the trust fund that pays for Medicare Part A"The primary culprit for this accelerated depletion is a sharp reduction in the fund’s projected income, heavily driven by legislation passed over the last year.

If you live in the #US and you are on #Medicare and your #Insurance company offers an at-home wellness check, refuse it.

Do Not do a wellness checkup with your insurance company, EVER.
