Also Medicare will no longer be covering telehealth visits.
So elderly patients on Medicare can no longer take medical appointments from home.
This affects millions of seniors who previously relied on telehealth to avoid trips to doctor’s offices, especially those with chronic or mobility issues.

I'm waiting for the big one: when they demand everyone show their papers to prove they are eligible to receive benefits. There was a piece on the wire, a few months ago, about a guy, born in Canada, with one USian parent, who had lived, worked, and paid taxes, as a US citizen, for decades. He tried to claim his Social Security benefit, that he had paid for, and was rejected on the grounds he was not a US citizen.

Steve,

I have to let them scan my license to see a new doctor. We all do now.
