Do some indepth research on how private insurance companies are reimbursed for each MA individual and you may see the correlation between how they are making their money by trumping up a patient's conditions that allow for greater reimbursement. And all those goodies you tout, don't get used to them because the insurance companies profits are being eaten into and there is talk of cutting some bennies MA individuals now receive.
Don't trust a forum, do research.. past AI, and put in some of the questions you have. It makes me laugh when MA recipients state they have never had anything rejected. That is because you don't know what tests that should have been performed for you and maybe for your wife prior to her stroke, which may have ameliorated that incident for her.
