Gee, sorry, worse news about California. We are 44th. Why? Read this carefully, bottom line, too many illegal aliens.
"“Partly, we have a very complex state. One of eight children in this country lives in California,” she said. Many are children of immigrants, who are themselves uninsured and have little or no access to regular health care, Brindis said. And for undocumented immigrants, fear of deportation may keep them from getting health care for their kids, even if they are U.S.-born. Non-citizen’s are not eligible for Healthy Families.
“We have families with one child born here and one child born in Mexico,” Brindis said, “and parents have a ‘Sophie’s choice.’ Which child do they bring for health care? How can they choose one child to have better access?”
Eligibility for Healthy Families coverage is no guarantee that children will get care, though. Brindis said that among the hundreds of thousands who would qualify based on their low incomes, simple lack of knowledge about the program is the first hurdle. And lack of providers is another hurdle to care."
Maybe if the parents were not criminals, they would care more about the health of their children and take them back to their native land for health care. Instead they destroy our health care systems and still have poor services for their children.
California proud! Illegal aliens are harming health care for honest, but sick American kids.
