Health program cuts spark advocate fury in Maryland
Advocates for the poor predict life sustaining care cuts to Maryland health programs totaling 44 million dollars. The package, part of a 127 million deficit reduction plan approved by the Board of Public Works, cuts the Pharmacy Assistance Program delaying prescriptions for about 14 000 people including 300 with AIDS. Thousands of kidney patients lose dialysis funding and home attendants for disabled residents are to be cut, raising fears of increased nursing home costs and hardship. Critics demand restoration through protest civil disobedience or litigation.
