Heard about John McCain's and Joe Kennedy's new healthcare bill that offers a purple (as in red plus blue) version of Bernie Sanders' Medicare For All bill? Like Sanders' plan, which is traditional Medicare for All, Medicare Part C For All would provide universal basic healthcare with no coverage limits and no discrimination against those with pre-existing conditions. My vision of the McCain-Kennedy bill would grandfather current and near-term traditional Medicare participants. It would include everything Medicare Part C now covers plus home healthcare and nursing home care. Congress would specify a fixed (through time) share of GDP -- say 10 percent -- to spend on Medicare Part C For All.
