Democratic 21st Century Club

Lunch with Dr. Ana Malinow

We're excited to be joined by Dr. Ana Malinow, retired pediatrician from UCSF and national speaker on single payer and the privatization of Medicare. Dr. Malinow will be speaking on a little-known program out of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services which promises to destroy Medicare as we know it.

"Value-based" payment schemes, such as ACO REACH, are for-profit middlemen straight from Wall Street, threatening to empty the Medicare Trust Fund as surely as they threaten the medical care of seniors and people with disabilities on Traditional Medicare. Hear how activists in California fought back and won an historic fight, putting the state of California on record as the first and only state legislature to oppose ACO REACH and profiteering in Medicare.

**In recognition of the beginning of Medicare's annual open enrollment period on October 15, we are excited to offer a discounted rate of $20 to all attendees to ensure that more members of our community can learn about this important topic and share what they learn with their personal networks.**
