My understanding is that the phrase "Medicare for All" does not mean the current Medicare program, but rather is a plan to provide all health care needs for all Americans. It recognizes that health care is a basic human right and not something that should be available just for those who can afford it. It would keep all of us from possibly experiencing bankruptcy if a catastrophic health condition occurs. It also includes using volume discounts to lower the cost of health care for everyone.
