Here is a nice fluffy piece in the Brazil Times about Congressman Ellsworth visiting with Hospital Administrators in Clay County. How nice, what a shame he didn’t bother to have a town hall meeting while he was there. He may have actually heard from his constituents, and realized they don’t want a Government Takeover of their Health Care.
Recently, representatives from St. Vincent Clay Hospital were given the opportunity to meet with U. S. Representative Brad Ellsworth.
The meeting was set up to discuss current issues with healthcare reform and the impact on our community.
The meeting covered how most healthcare discussions leave many citizens confused about possible changes.
It was highlighted at the meeting that St. Vincent Health is committed to finding ways to help solve the ongoing healthcare crisis and achieving the goal of Healthcare That Leaves No One Behind.
The meeting also covered the importance of getting correct information out to the public.
St. Vincent Clay Hospital has served Clay County residents since 1928 and is a member of St. Vincent Health, a nonprofit, spiritually centered healthcare system sponsored by Ascension Health.
So we are all clear, if you are a Hospital Administrator you can ask questions to Congressman Ellsworth in person. If you are just a Constituent you can call in to a phone number and not get to ask questions.
Everybody should understand the rules by now!
