This legislation makes so much sense. It is insane the we want to put people in the hospital when they can be treated in the home with high levels of quality and much lower costs. My patients deserve better.

I have an MS client who lives in a rural area and is using Home Infusion drugs but must struggle to administer them herself. She must pay 100% out of pocket. This makes no sense.
Pass this legislation.

I agree with the above comments. When does healthcare become about the patient and not about the beauractic process. I heard that there is now Senate legislation. Hopefully we will start seeing progress in helping to ensure that seniors get appropriate care.

I have been following this issue. Does anyone know what the AARP position is on this legislation. They should be the strongest advocates.
