Dialysis funding cuts
Thursday, August 30 at 2:00 PM

Betty Crosslen of the Lakewood Dialysis Center writes:

Our elected officials in Washington, D.C. are debating about cutting Medicare payments for dialysis patients. Dialysis is the only method of keeping patients alive whose kidneys have failed, apart from transplants. I have worked in dialysis for over 9 years and have seen firsthand the critical need there is to provide these lifesaving treatments, and the funding required to continue providing them. This is not optional!
