They give benefits to the overweight? 98% of everyone in the Tri-Cities is as big as an old hog. They would go broke if that is the only requirement.
I bet that each and every person in Bristol can put a name to a citizen in this area that should not be receiving TennCare benefites any more than the rest of us but TennCare- yoohoo… sullivan county social services representative- I wont mention HIS Name.. giving special clause eligibilities to an overweight female recipent that has a job and so does her husband. If he doesnt find his way through this comment and undo what he has done- it is very possible that it will be undone by the budget cuts and so may his employment. H should be ashamed, how many truly ill residents are denied these benefites while you squander them on a “favored” person because you found some clause…excuse me- has Lucifer put the Life & Death wand in your hand? Just another example of how this whole eastern Tennessee city has evolved into nothing but corruption and injustice. Why this person chose to give benefite to a healthy, employed woman with ample resources in lieu of another that’s health is so deteriated that they cant work- this embedded corruption in Bristol/ Sullivan County needs to end.
How about all those people on disability for addiction to cigarettes, liquor and Oxycontin? There is some fraud!
What about health care advertising fraud?
Did you know that in East Tennessee, “horrifying health care” is the same as “acceptable standards of health care” ? Go figure. Profit care comes ahead of Patient care.
