Your child’s story
*
Tell us your child’s story. What can your child do today — or what has changed for your whole family — because of these services? Think about where your child started and where they are now.
What the cuts would cost you
*
Starting August 1, most Kentucky Medicaid providers are being cut by 4% — on top of a rate reduction earlier this year. If your child’s therapist or doctor had to cut back hours, add you to a longwaitlist, or close, what would that mean for your child and your family, day to day?
Your message to leaders
*
If you could say one thing straight to Governor Beshear and Kentucky’s lawmakers about thesecuts, what would it be? Speak from the heart — this becomes the most powerful line in your letter.
Is there anyone else who could do this?
*
How long has your child been with this provider, and how far do you drive to get there? If they had to close, is there another provider nearby who could take your child and how long is the wait?
I’m a Kentucky parent/guardian and I authorize Hogg Therapy Pediatrics to send my responses and signature to the Governor and legislators on my behalf.
