August 2, 2024 (press release) –

In an op-ed published Aug. 2 in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, former Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett highlights how hospitals, especially those in rural areas, are facing significant financial challenges and how some proposals being considered by Congress would cut patient care by slashing billions of dollars in funding to hospitals. “If these bad ideas make it out of the Belt­way and be­come law, even more hos­pi­tals would have to shrink their ser­vices or shut their doors … We can do bet­ter. I urge law­mak­ers to re­ject pol­i­cies that would cut pa­tient care and fo­cus on real solu­tions that sup­port our hos­pi­tals, our health­care work­ers, and our res­i­dents’ ac­cess to care.”
