Green's plan for Muhlenberg will abolish charity care



The solution backed by Assemblyman Jerry Green for Plainfield's Muhlenberg Hospital, as presented by developer Drew Piscatelli at a public meeting on Wednesday, is to ensure that charity care will no longer be offered at the 'new' facility, according to a report in today's Ledger.

Maybe they'll offer free medical care as in France, Canada, Cuba. Free NJ healthcare, not bad.

This may be the first time I agree with Jerry Green. History has been made.

Dan,
So where do the charity people go? More importantly, the merits for keeping Muhlenberg open, in one fashion or another, depend on the adaptive reuse appeal of the structure. Functional obsolesecnce and external forces are closing hospitals all over the USA. What is proposed is a lomg shot at best! The developer has proposed a voluntary "mom & pop" facility. It makes great press, but where are the MDs? Sorry to say, but Assemblyman Green, not known for his creativity, is again priming his "see no evil speak no evil" constituents for next month's election.
