Well…as I sit here contemplating if I should go out on the bike since the rain has stopped, a little surprise in the infrastructure bill that is getting ready to get passed by reconcilliation, which will bypass the filibuster, made me smile a bit…in that 3.5 trillion dollar bill, the dems have closed one of the biggest holes in medicare…that it doesn’t cover dental, vision, or hearing problems and all of us who have medicare have to pay for all of that out of pocket…even medicare advantage like I have only covers tiny amounts of those…no real dental work…maybe one cleaning a year…but that’s about it for dental….but this bill will cover everything including hearing aids, glasses and all dental care…for me, that is really welcome since I have been putting off the thousands of dollars in dental work I need to be able to eat ice cream again and fix the loose molar I have on my right side….so, I guess I can suffer a few more months if it will save me a couple of thousand dollars…it probably wouldn’t take effect until the next sign up period that ends Jan 1 of next year….I’ll keep my fingers crossed…
