Linda Harding+FollowMedicare Advantage caps take advantageI am disabled and became eligible for Medicare a few years ago. I was told if I needed help with transportation that I would have to switch to an MA plan thus began my journey with Medicare Advantage. I have an illness that destroyed my teeth and saw a dentist who said they were making me sick. My upper teeth were removed a few months ago. United paid for that but they said my plan is maxed out and they won't pay any more. Because I am on Medicare I was automatically put on Medicaid QMB which only covers copays at a doctor or hospital. This means I have had no follow up care because I can not afford it. I am in a lot of pain. Bone spurs are coming through my gums. I am trying to make it tolerable by using orajel and Tylenol but there have been times I start crying because it hurts so bad. The dentist won't see me unless I have the copays up front, which the next step is a deep cleaning which they want $154 for. Meanwhile I can only eat soft foods and I am seeing a doctor for swallowing disorders. She is concerned about my nutrition so I am on liquid multivitamins and a daily nutritional shake. This whole situation is so frustrating. Original Medicare doesn't cover dental so switching to it would have no effect on my situation. I can't even get antibiotics for my recovery plan without seeing the dentist again and I can't afford to pay for the treatment. #MedicareAdvantage,#UnitedHealth6859Share

kingabigail+FollowThe Truth About Medicare AdvantageEver wonder if Medicare Advantage is really a good deal? Turns out, it can be a nightmare for folks who actually get sick.
