Health-care professionals to rap Rite Care cuts

As Governor Carcieri prepares to give his latest State of the State address tonight, a coalition of health-care professionals plans a State House protest tomorrow, at 3:30 pm, to rap the governor's proposed cuts to RIte Care.

Nick Tsiongas, President of the RI Medical Society commented on the event: "Health care professionals are hosting this action to express our disbelief that this proposal has even seen the light of day.   We plan to highlight the quality of this nationally recognized program.  The fact is, we can not cut our way out of the state's current structural deficit.   There are more responsible alternatives we must look to."
