Security for You Paupers Benefit Plan Faces House Vote
The House Ways and Means Committee backed a plan to aid seniors with medical costs, but only a small share of 65 plus Americans would qualify. States would choose to participate, funding 35 to 50 percent of costs with the federal match at 50 to 65 percent. Benefits include hospitalization up to 120 days, doctor services, drugs, lab work, dental care, and nursing, with states tailoring coverage. The measure heads to a House vote and possible Senate expansion.
