Does our governor not get it?

Health care cost is one of the most serious concerns for our country and our state. Yes, we need to pay the hospitals. They continue, in most instances without question, to care for our uninsured and underinsured.

Maine needs to accept federal Medicaid money. Let’s help keep health costs down by providing more folks with a primary care physician. Hmmm, a blood pressure pill or a trip to the ER with a heart attack? Which costs less? Health care in Maine and the U.S. needs to be a right not a privilege. A special thanks to our lawmakers who get it!
