Delisi Opposes Health Care For the Elderly

Dianne (smooches, darling) Delisi's efforts on health care is effectively eliminating the STAR+PLUS Program. What is STAR+PLUS?

A blogger explained it,

STAR+PLUS is currently a pilot program in Houston that integrates acute and long-term care services for aged and disabled Medicaid recipients using a managed care model. The state agency in charge of Medicaid, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC), had planned to expand STAR+PLUS to the other urban areas of the state. STAR+PLUS has demonstrated positive outcomes of care, has generated savings for the state, and is a leading model nationally for integrating care for this particularly vulnerable and expensive population.

Go to this blog, read up on this really well written piece and then get your fingers working to call our favorite "Marrying" Legislator!
