“What we are finding in the usage data from authorized states is similar to the trend in all healthcare, including medical aid in dying, hospice care, palliative care and other end-of-life care options. Communities of color are not accessing any of them at the same rate as white Americans.” ... See MoreSee Less

Welcome Jill! Awesome news.
Love!!!
Thank you @Assemblywoman Angela V. McKnight for meeting with #GOCCNJ members to discuss the importance of a Medicaid benefit in NJ that will provide community-based palliative care for seniors and people with serious illness. You have been a staunch proponent for health care reform to better support patients, families, caregivers, and the direct care workforce. This benefit will allow older New Jerseyans to age in place and provide much needed support for underserved, minority communities. #goalsofcare New Jersey Chapter - American College of Physicians CSH Health Care Association of New Jersey Home Care & Hospice Association of New Jersey International End of Life Doula Association Jewish Sacred Aging LeadingAge New Jersey & Delaware Medical Society of New Jersey NASW-NJ New Jersey Advocates for Aging Well NJ-ACEP New Jersey Association of Mental Health and Addiction Agencies, Inc.
