Federal cuts to Medicaid will have a profound effect on Okanogan County communities

Federal cuts to Medicaid will have a profound effect on Okanogan County communities. Our hospitals, elder care facilities, mental health services and clinics are all threatened.  In an effort to understand the impact of the cuts and plan for the future, there will be a discussion by stakeholders with the community at the Okanogan PUD at 6:30pm July 29th. This is designed as a nonpartisan event, to build a foundation of accurate information and understanding. It is meant to strengthen a community response. As a community leader, we need your voice at this discussion. Whether it is a discussion of the economic impact or the social burden communities will bear, you are critical to the conversation. We hope you are able to join us.
