MEDICARE COVERAGE IN A NUTSHELL


The phone rings and the lady of the house answers,
'Hello.'

'Mrs. Sanders,
please.'

'Speaking.'


'Mrs. Sanders, this is Doctor Jones at
Saint Agnes
Laboratory. When your husband's doctor
sent his biopsy to the lab
last week, a biopsy from another
Mr Sanders arrived as well.
We are now uncertain
which one belongs to your husband.
Frankly, either way the
results are not too good.'

'What
do you mean?' Mrs. Sanders asks nervously.


'Well, one of the specimens tested positive for
Alzheimer's
and the other one tested positive for
HIV.
We can't tell which is which.'


'That's dreadful! Can you do the test again?'
questioned Mrs.

Sanders.


'Normally we can, but Medicare will only pay for
these
expensive tests one time.'


'Well, what am I supposed to do now?'


'The folks at Medicare recommend that you drop
your husband
off somewhere in the middle of town. If
he finds his way home,
don't sleep with
him.'
