I know someone that works at the local Community Health Center...

and she received an email a few days ago, requesting that all the employees park back away from the Clinic so that senior citizens could get into the Community Health Center without a lot of hassle. They had several people assigned to assist the seniors in attempting to get their new Medicare benefits. They were anticipating a bunch of people showing up so they had plenty of assistants to answer their question or try to resolve their problems with the new Medicare program. Reading the memo, it seemed like a total screw up.

More coming into cardiac units for lack of heart meds. More coming in with complications of diabetes due to problems getting meds.

Yeah, this is gonna save money... :eye: Gonna kill off a lot of people before their time is what it's gonna do.
