Last but not least healthcare, it’s difficult to sustain quality healthcare on a Medicare budget. Quality healthcare is a national problem, exacerbated in Florida and even more so in TV due to the median age.
Medicare has become one of the better payers to doctors... The others have dropped to (or below) medicare reimbursements...

It used to be that you made most of your money off of the private insurance companies and you accepted Medicare/Medicaid as an afterthought...

That is no longer the case...
