Will proposed U.S health care reform take away secondary insurers?

A family member is claiming that "they said" (fox news I'm guessing) that people on medicare would no longer for whatever reason be able to have secondary insurance.. For example she is on medicare and has medicaid for her secondary I've tried googling for this info, i've made an attempt to look through the actual bill online (no idea what to even look for to begin with) and cant find anything.

Re: Will proposed U.S health care reform take away secondary insurers?

They are so far from passing any legislation that it's hard to say what the final outcome will be. Keep in mind many of the networks (i.e. Fox) have shows that are really commentary by the hosts (i.e. Glen Beck). Thus the host may have an issue they want to air (in part just to be controversial) but it may not, in actuality, be anywhere in the actual legislation.
