I implore you fine ladies and gentlemen, to pass the heath care Bill. Two years ago, I was working for DNC at Yosemite National Park, as a Chef. I have worked for the company for a year and half in the year 2008, and I decided that I love cooking so much I was going to get my Culinary Degree. First I had a Criminal Justice degree, and I went out there to work for the security, for the park. The jobs were full and I got a dishwashing job, and in three months I was a Chef at the Ahwahnee Hotel. Then in five months I became a asst. manager at the Degnan's pizza loft. The Executive Chef Percy, took me under his wing. I went back to Tennessee, which is my home state, and I started my Culinary Degree. I went back to Yosemite National Park to do my externship, but they couldn't hire me until the fall of 2010. I got a job at White Wolf High Camp as a Chef for the summer. The company does not give insurance until you work for them in six months. I lost all my seniority after being gone for over a year. I was three days away from doing my externship and the unimaginable happened. I fractured my left ankle and foot. It’s been two years now and I am still in horrible pain. The doctors keep telling to go to a pain clinic, but I don’t want to get hooked on pain pills. I want my left ankle fixed, so I go back to work. I can’t stand over five minutes without putting my foot up or taking off my shoes. I sit and watch TV, and I am still in pain. The doctors said since I won’t go to the pain clinics, I should sign up for Disability. I have signed up in July, and I am still waiting for a approval, so I can get insurance to be fixed. I can't get a job, because I keep getting fired or forced to quit. They can see that am in horrible pain. If the ObamaCare was in effect in 2000, I would be fixed and back to work. That’s all I want. If I am on disability soon, I will be taking the tax payers money. I don’t want that, but I will do what I have to. Just to go back to cooking and I love to Cook. I have cooked since I was 15-years-old. I know that I need at least four surgeries, to be fixed and go back to work. This might take about one to two years and maybe a little more, and then I am back to work. I am not a lazy American, as you see I made it to management in five months. Chef Percy did what I did in five years, and I got the nickname little Chef Percy. Please consider Americans like me. If the bill does not pass, may I ask for your help and advise on how to get fixed and find help on getting insurance. I get denied every two months on TENNcare, the state insurance here. Please Help ME.

Currently the State of Kansas limits the training and hiring of mental health case managers, attendant care workers, and crisis responders to the area mental health centers. These workers have little to no education or specific training about our special needs children and adults and are paid minimally; thus, turnover is extremely high and often creates regression in the mental health treatment process. Additionally, our family members do not have a strong, trusting bond with these revolving caregivers, who are therefore, limited in their ability to de-escalate a crisis situation, very often leading to police involvement and hospitalization screenings/stays. We need Medicaid to give private agencies equal opportunity to utilize their expertise with the SED, MR/DD, and SPMI population, and open the crisis, case management, and attendant care codes, especially now that budget cuts have greatly impacted what services are offered at mental health centers.

This fee is clearly focused on the 99% of the population who can least afford the charge.
