Well if it IS resource based, it kind of makes sense. Just as though they had won the lottery.
If no award gets awarded then no resource is there and it’s moot. Not even Medicare/Medicaid thinks it can get blood from a turnip.
“Attorney Ilann Maazel said others who have filed lawsuits on behalf of loved ones who have died in state care have received similar bills.
Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg (D-Long Island) said the bills are clearly meant as retaliation.”
I agree, it’s nothing more than retaliation, and an attempt to get them to drop the lawsuits.
It’s beyond the pale.
So, be on medicaid long enough, and the state’s position is that they are entitled to kill you with absolute impunity.
