Story

Please tell us how you, your family or your community has benefited from Medicaid coverage for dental care, vision care, and transportation assistance: I work in hemodialysis and our patients utilize transportation services to get to their life saving treatments. It also helps them get to doctor appointments for preventative visits or visits needed when ill.

Please tell us how eliminating these benefits would affect you, your family, or your community: Losing these benefits would increase illness, promote loss of adherence to medical regimens and recommendations, placing more strain on an already overwhelmed healthcare system.
