Unfortunately, the booby trap for seniors is still present. It is called outpatient observation. This is explained on page 28. You can have Medicare and a Medicare supplement and still get a bill for $2,000 to $4,000. Prisma Health states in the recent ads “they will transform health care.” Maybe Prisma Health can eliminate this booby trap and help seniors. This would be a won- derful transformation!

USC FOOTBALL CLEMSON FOOTBALL QB Bentley looks past boos Back to work to try and help Carolina win BY EDDIE LITAKER Special to The Sumter Item

COLUMBIA — In football, if a team is struggling on offense the most popular person on the field is likely to be the backup quarterback. University of South Carolina starting quarter- back Jake Bentley, returning to the field after sitting out the previous week's 37-35 win over Missouri BENTLEY with a knee injury, found that out early in Saturday's Southeastern Conference game against Texas A&M. South Carolina's defense had stopped Texas A&M's offense on its first two possessions. Crest- wood High School alum Ty'Son Williams had just found two big holes in the Aggies' vaunted run defense for runs of 14 and 27 yards. The Gamecocks were in scor- ing position, with two shots from the TAMU 8, Bentley over- threw Josh Vann in the end zone and then threw an inter- ception to Charles Oliver on a second attempt to connect with Vann.
