Custom HealthCare Digs Into Recent Medicare Health Reform Controversy

Richmond, VA (prHWY.com) September 16, 2012 - Richmond, Virginia - Medicare reform has been at the center of a firestorm of debate between political parties over the past week. Senior members of GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's campaign have adopted a public stance on Medicare that is drastically different from the position Republicans have historically taken on the program. Republicans have established a reputation for criticizing the Medicare program. During recent appearances in support of his campaign for United States President, Romney and his team have presented the Republican party as the program's would-be savior.

Members of Romney's camp have charged Democrat endorsed Medicare reforms with weakening the foundation of Medicare. One of Romney's top advisers accused President Obama of raiding Medicare's piggy bank to finance ObamaCare, forcing thousands of seniors to look for alternatives to their health insurance in Virginia.

Democrats have fought back, responding to the claims by arguing that the roughly $700 billion in reductions to projected Medicare growth over the next 10 years are intended to eliminate waste, fraud and subsidies to insurance companies. Benefits to senior citizens were not part of the cuts, according to Democrats' arguments. Furthermore, Democrats assert, the funds saved by those cuts were funneled back into Medicare.

Regardless of how health care reform affects Medicare and health insurance in Virginia overall, Anthem of Virginia will continue to provide affordable, comprehensive insurance coverage options. Custom HealthCare has developed partnerships with Anthem of Virginia and other top rated carriers to offer a broad selection of plans including the following:

* Medicare Supplements
