“Medicare for all will mean more politics in health care and will eliminate choice for all Americans,” claims a new ad put out by leading health organizations. (Image: Shutterstock)

Digital ads claiming a move to Medicare for All will reduce choice for Americans will soon be making the rounds on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, at the behest of the Partnership for America's Health Care Future.

According to The Hill, the group is made up of major health industry presences who could lose out under a Medicare for All system, including America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) and the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA). Group members came together last year as a body to take on Medicare for all, arguing that such a system would take a toll on patients by cutting choice and injecting disruption into the system.

The rise of Medicare for All under the new crop of elected Congressional officials makes the likelihood of eventual adoption of such a system greater, although there's no chance of it passing the current Republican-controlled Senate. However, newly elected Democrats are likely to hold hearings on the matter, now that they're in control of the House, which will likely stimulate further debate and perhaps even garner more support for the idea.
