Advocacy for Domestic Partners in re: Medicare

Great post, Steven! In fact it surprised me as I thought this was already in place and perhaps AARP had been involved. Sadly, searching found neither of those to be true.

This is a most important issue that needs to be addressed.

Your post really needs to go under the “Medicare and Insurance”. board - 

With that said you may need to expand your complaint because same sex married couple have all the same Medicare rules and regs as do opposite sex married couples.  

Perhaps the problem is with the conditions of “marriage”. speaking of it in the legal sense.  I believe that is a pre-requisite for Medicare benefits to be extended to a partner.  How else could it be? 

But maybe I am just not understanding your post - so please expand on it.
