Teleo Agents baef59e8a7 vida: extract 3 claims from 2026-02-23-cbo-medicare-trust-fund-2040-insolvency
- What: 3 health domain claims on Medicare HI Trust Fund fiscal sustainability
- Why: CBO February 2026 revised projection (2055→2040) reveals structural fiscal fragility; fills a gap in the KB — no existing claims on Medicare solvency dynamics
- Connections:
  - [[the healthcare cost curve bends up through 2035]] — adds fiscal policy pressure to the structural cost story
  - [[CMS 2027 chart review exclusion]] — MA overpayment reform is one lever to extend solvency
  - [[Americas declining life expectancy]] — deaths of despair worsen the worker-to-beneficiary ratio
