We support the president in his desire to bring the benefit of health care coverage to all Americans, but it must not be accomplished on the backs of the homebound elderly who are so sick with multiple complex medical problems.
Val J. Halamandaris President National Association for Home Care & Hospice The New York Times, March 2, 2009

Please join our campaign to prevent $57 billion in proposed cuts to Medicare home health care coverage over the next ten years.
