Medicare is NOT the only payer. Beneficiaries pay premiums to Medicare &they pay % that Medicare doesn't cover.Some pay a secondary insurer.

If you have a secondary insurance policy, it pays some of the bills after Medicare picks up its share. That's 3 payers: govt, 2nd ins & YOU.

Right. But doesn't describe Medicare, which has a minimum of 2 payers &in some cases 3.So not accurate to call Medicare single-payer & v.v.

Only a single payer counts as single-payer. Do you know of a single-payer system that is not government-run? I don't.

A "con" is a deliberate deception. Where's the deception? If he had supported Bill Clinton,would you call him a"con artist" for same reason?
