US Social Security and Medicare Face Financial Crisis
2023-05-12
2023-05-12
Social Security and Medicare are facing financial challenges that could threaten the long-term care system relied on by millions of Americans. The Social Security and Medicare trustees recently warned that these safety nets will run short of money to pay full benefits within the next decade. Medicare, which covers 65 million older and disabled people, will be unable to pay full benefits for inpatient hospital visits and nursing home stays by 2031. Meanwhile, Social Security won’t have enough cash on hand to pay out full benefits to its 66 million retirees just two years later.
The report is a call to action for politicians to address the fragile financial state of these social programs. On its current track, Medicare would only be able to cover 89% of costs for patients’ hospital visits, nursing home stays, and home health care starting in 2031. Social Security is in worse shape, with the fund predicted to cover only 77% of benefits starting in 2033.
The financial issues facing Medicare and Social Security could further damage the US's long-term care system. It is clear that action needs to be taken to ensure the long-term viability of these programs and the well-being of older Americans and their families
