I also know down here in Chattanooga that Memorial Hospital just did a 350 Million addition, and that Erlanger Hospital is Hiring, and Park Ridge is about to undergo another growth expansion.

My son in law works for the:

I was lucky enough to see this place when I was visiting my daughter in June of this year. They are always hiring, and when I asked about the Affordable Health Care Act everyone in Portland was looking forward to its roll out. But then that is what happens when you work at something to make it better, it gets better.

In Tennessee our Governor is still working on the new lottery system that allows the citizens of Tennessee to win a chance to be one of the first to get a phone number that they can call to inquire about Medical Insurance. But you have to be one the lucky lottery winners to get this phone number. That is so much better for healthcare when you are suffering from something like diabetes, heart diseases, or cancer, a phone number to call someone to ask a question.

We really do not get the NYTimes down here, you can find it on line, but until you mentioned it was the first time I even heard that bit of information. I also know that down here many citizens are getting angry about not havingur own state participating in this program.

This is one of the redish states you can find, but when you are DENIED health Insurance, and are sick with diabetes, heart disease, or cancer you just want to see a Doctor. At the moment the Health Insurance Company DENIES you coverage because of your pre-existing condition.

Until I hear that you have a better way of treating people with these type of health conditions, I will look forward to the Affordable Health Care Act. But then I was denied coverage for three years and almost died under the Republican answer to everything, which is nothing.
