Podcast: The 2009 Social Security and Medicare Trustees' Reports

The Social Security and Medicare Trustees' report on Medicare underscores the urgency of health care reforms to slow health care cost growth, starting with President Obama’s proposed Medicare reforms.  The Trustees’ report shows Social Security doesn’t face an immediate crisis but does require changes, and the sooner they’re made, the better.

In this podcast, Bob Greenstein discusses the annual reports and their implications.
