Wanted to make you all are aware of a grassroots rally to voice opposition to the proposed 28% rate cut to Medicaid home health providers. This rally will be Tuesday, March 22, 2011 at the State Capitol - South Steps @ 1100 Congress Avenue.
I urge you to talk to your parents and encourage them to write letters that we can take with us or urge them to meet us and follow our caravan to the capitol. You can make signs and take photos of your patients (with parental permission of course) and take them also.
This proposed rate cut will affect our patients' access to all home health services including therapy and nursing. If your parents want to write letters they may write about what therapy at home has done for their child.
I have attached a copy of the flyer that the Alliance of Pediatric Providers of San Antonio has provided. I encourage you to hand this out to your families and let them know how important it is for their concerns to be heard.
Thanks for your time and consideration of this very important matter!
When: Tuesday March 22
Time: 10:30a.m. to Noon
Where: Texas State Capitol- south steps
1100 Congress Avenue - Austin, TX 78701
RSVP and for more information - Call Angela Pena (210)615-5242
