Compulsory health insurance for old people

The old age often regarded as post retirement age seems fun ti all age groups ,no work no worries only calm and serene life as thought by others .But this calm life is destroyed by long term illness which naturally attacks old people because the immune system is no longer efficient.Most of the times elderly people are not able to keep up with the medical expensives thus going broke
it is imperitive of federal Goverment to provide insurance for long term illness to elderly people.It is human nature to think that "all will be fine in teh future" but often time they are wrong .Twenty percent of death occur in hospital due to the fact that elderly people do not have medical insurance and hospitals are not ready to take care of them.This could have been avoided if Federal Goverment intervined and made it complusory for all to have medical insurance .Millions of lives can be save dand there wull be no financial pressure on the family ,hence old people living peacefully .At the end it boils down to the fact that old life is not a defeat but a victory if they have medical insurance even if federal Goverment does not assist because no one knows what will happen in the future
