Medicare 是專款專用，和general fund沒有關係

目前為止， Medicare fund 還有結餘的。也許幾年後， 這個結餘會用完， 到時再加。

In 2023, HI income exceeded spending by $12.2 billion. Surpluses should continue through 2029, followed by deficits until the fund runs out entirely in 2036, according to the report.

At that point, the government won’t be able to pay full benefits for inpatient hospital visits, nursing home stays and home healthcare.
