IN THE NEWS Fight for Hospital
Bills Continue to SACRAMENTO — Assembly Bill 900 is proving to be a popular bill with state legislators. The bill which is designed to reverse cuts to the Medi-Cal rates paid to hospital based skilled-care or long-term facilities sailed through the Assembly Budget Committee with 100% support from both Democrats and Republican committee members. It was heard in the Assembly Appropriations Committee May 8 . According to State Senator Jim Nielsen,
If the funding cuts are allowed to stand,
hospital-based skilled nursing facilities,
already decimated by low Medi-Cal
reimbursement rates that don’t cover the cost
of current care, will lose another 25-40
percent of their funding. This will result in
the closure of facilities or drastically
reduced services in rural communities.
Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall But

it! Bridge to be
