This webinar on Monday, June 5, at 5 p.m., features Wendell Potter, the former insurance exec who is calling for Medicare For All. He will share how corporations–subsidized by the federal government with our tax dollars–are amassing billions in profits while turning Medicare into a privately managed program. Medicare Advantage plans now enroll more than 50% of Medicare beneficiaries–fraudulently overcharging the system and controlling senior access to care. The corporate grip is tightening daily, undermining our hope for a truly public, affordable, comprehensive Medicare for All system.

Wendell Potter is “the Daniel Ellsberg of corporate America,” according to Michael Moore. Now a bestselling author and outspoken advocate for universal health care, Potter was once VP of corporate communications for the insurance giant CIGNA. He founded the Center for Health & Democracy which provides vital information about the attack on Medicare.
