The Health of Your Hospitals Forum

A recently completed New York State Department of Health analysis shows that the repeal of the Affordable Care Act will result in $13.7 million in funding cuts to the 13 hospitals in Congressional District 19.

Locally, Health Alliance (previously Kingston and Benedictine hospitals) will lose $1,367,237 annually in revenue which surely will effect both staffing and services.

In response to these potential cuts, Indivisible Saugerties will sponsor a forum entitled The Health of Your Hospitals. The featured speaker will be David Scarpino, President and CEO of Health Alliance. The forum will be at the Saugerties Senior Citizens Center at 207 Market Street, Saugerties, on Monday July 24, 2017 from 6-8pm. If you’d like more information, please call Mike Harkavy at (845) 246-7493.
