Nice piece in last Friday’s North Adams Transcript on health reform implementation in Northern Berkshire County. Nice photo of Chip Joffe Halpern, Executive Director of Ecu-Care, board president at Health Care For All, and a member of the board of the Connector. Here’s one graph:
“During the last two weeks, we have enrolled 30 new clients in the Commonwealth Care program and only nine people in our volunteer doctor program,” Joffe-Halpern said. “Before, we would have enrolled all 39 in our volunteer doctor program. And after Jan. 1, those nine will be transferred over to Commonwealth Care. We will no longer need to rely on the generous care of our volunteer doctors.”
