MEDICARE: Why it is going broke

I just emerged from the hospital. I came in with two primary complaints: atrial fibrillation and stomach pain, both of which came about after a vomiting session of about an hour. For nearly 3 days, I struggled to get the old body back on even keel, but it kept wobbling. Finally, I went into the emergency room. By this time, I was dehydrated. In a few hours, they'd stabilized me, then admitted me.
