He has also promised on the campaign trail to send\u00a0every American adult $5,000\u00a0if Republicans retain control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That pledge \u2014 which would require approval from Congress \u2014 would likely cost more than $1 trillion,\u00a0adding to the deficit\u00a0and worsening inflation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Polls show\u00a0Americans increasingly blame Trump\u00a0for the\u00a0high cost of gasoline\u00a0and\u00a0groceries\u00a0with just 17% approving of his handling of inflation. Trump has sought to shrug off concerns about affordability, saying the economy is booming.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The White House said the $90 payments for seniors will come from the Medicare Improvement Fund, established by Congress in 2008 as flexible funding to improve program operations and payments to health care providers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Medicare Part B enrollees can expect to receive a one-time payment in October, either through direct deposit or by check, the White House said. Total monthly costs for the program \u2014 which covers costs like doctor\u2019s visits, ambulance services and lab tests \u2014 start around $200 and vary with income.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To be eligible, seniors must be living in the U.S. and not be already receiving premium assistance from Medicaid or paying adjusted monthly premiums based on income, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Seniors enrolled in Medicare Advantage, a private plan alternative to traditional Medicare coverage, are not eligible for the payment. More than half of eligible Medicare beneficiaries have Medicare Advantage, according to healthcare research nonprofit KFF.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Previous administrations have not used the Medicare Improvement Fund in this way, although Congress has periodically taken out money from the fund to pay for other priorities, said Larry Levitt, KFF\u2019s executive vice president for health policy. For example, $20.74 billion was used for the creation of the Affordable Care Act in 2010.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Medicare Improvement Fund language is quite broad and gives substantial discretion to the administration,\u201d Levitt said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#Trump #teases #money #voters #aheadof #midterms #promising #touting<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President\u00a0Donald Trump\u00a0is prom&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5949,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[9035,176,1921,27,7015,9034,6663,357,5276,1472],"class_list":["post-5948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance-news","tag-aheadof","tag-inflation","tag-midterms","tag-money","tag-promising","tag-teases","tag-touting","tag-trump","tag-u-s-midterm-elections","tag-voters"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 -
