Thank you Governor Josh Shapiro for your leadership on alleviating the burden of medical debt for thousands of Pennsylvanians, aiding struggling rural hospitals and EMS agencies, and reducing a driver of healthcare inflation. Proud to stand with you to get this done.

Yesterday, I joined The Office of Councilman Bobby Wilson, PA Health Access, and community members to discuss the tragedy of medical debt and how my legislation, HB 78, included by Governor Josh Shapiro in his budget, can address this crisis. Thanks to Just Harvest for hosting us and for championing this cause.

The moment to start looking at closures is when a merger, acquisition, or change in ownership happens" Patrick Keenan PA Health Access #SenDemPolicy Pennsylvania House Majority Policy Committee
