New Video

The Home and Hospice Care Association folks are giving State Senator Doug Berger a run for his money. Yesterday they aired a TV ad in his district. Today they put a video on the Internet. (View Ad Below)
 
In his State Senate Committee Berger cut home care for 20,000 patients on Medicaid. The reason he gave was simple: He said he had a ‘study’ by a state vendor (named CCME) that proved 45% of the patients in home care were ineligible.
 
Unfortunately for Senator Berger it turned out the study didn’t say that. In fact, it didn’t say anyone was ineligible. Not one patient. Because it didn’t include an examination of a single patient. So Senator Berger cut home care for 20,000 patients (who were eligible) based on a report he misread.
