My mother is in a nursing home. Her hearing aids are not covered by Medicare nor Medicaid. She's only allowed $50 a month from her social security for so her clothes, personal items, and supplements, her eye glasses and hearing aids. $50 a month won't cover that stuff
The fact there is not already one or any attempt at common sense enforcement speaks volumes in it's own right. Maybe we need another department and a 10 year study.......
We used to have government funded mental institutions that would have handled this, but Reagan handed this off to the states who didn't have the money to continue funding.
If the City passes this, the homeless will not go away. They will move into the surrounding neighborhoods. Your children will step over the homeless as they walk to school and you will hear screaming all night long..
If you can give Medicaid people hearing aides you can give Medicare people hearing aides.

ReplyI'm 63 & I need hearing aids for both ears! I can't afford them on my small social security check with the other bills that I pay every month!
