Actually this plan is part of the ACA (passed WITHOUT Republican support) and is designed to award bonuses to insurance companies. So is the Govt. willfully awarding insurers swindling?

From your link....

"The health care law cut payments to private Medicare Advantage plans after many studies found that they were being overpaid. President Obama said the private plans were getting “unwarranted subsidies” that “pad their profits but don’t improve the care of seniors.”

Happy now?

The insurers have been swindling the Govt. and reaping billions in excess profits from the Medicare Advantage Program. We can't afford it anymore. You Republicans want it continued and for it's waste to continue too. The more we waste the quicker Medicare will go bankrupt which is what you really want.
