Republican congressman offers to help constituents deal with aftermath of health care bill he voted for – By Casey Quinlan / May 16 2017
Rep. Jeff Denham (R-CA) is offering to help constituents with pre-existing conditions who may struggle to access health care following the passage of the American Health Care Act — after having voted for the bill that would roll back their coverage.
When you visit the congressman’s website, a pop-up window appears. The window reads, “Having problems getting (or keeping) Medicaid or Medicare or finding health coverage due to a preexisting condition? I want to help!”
If you click on the window for assistance, it takes you to a Casework Form page that is designed to help constituents who need to communicate with federal agencies, say they have been treated unfairly, or have an “inability to retain, Medicaid or Medicare or trouble finding (or keeping) coverage due to preexisting conditions following passage of the American Health Care Act.”
