Lynchburg, VA (prHWY.com) September 16, 2012 - Lynchburg, Virginia - The debate between Republicans and Democrats over how health care reform will affect Medicare has been fierce, to say the least. Now, members of GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's camp have thrown a curveball at Democrats. Using a strategy simultaneously labeled as bold and risky by players on the front lines and political heavyweights on the sidelines of the 2012 United States Presidential campaign, senior members of Romney's team 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 fund ObamaCare, forcing thousands of seniors to look for alternatives to their Virginia Medicare.

The stance adopted by Romney's camp is notably different from the position Republicans have historically taken on Medicare. Republicans have established a reputation for criticizing the Medicare program. Now, Romney is presenting his party as the program's would-be savior. 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. The government recognizes that reputable carriers like BlueCross BlueShield of Virginia can operate successfully without subsidies. Furthermore, Democrats assert, the funds saved by the fraud and waste related cuts were funneled back into Medicare.

Regardless of how health care reform affects Medicare, USA Online Health Insurance will continue to provide affordable, comprehensive Virginia Medicare coverage through carriers including BlueCross BlueShield of Virginia. The agency offers a broad range of plans to suit each consumer's unique medical needs and budget including the following:
