Compass Medical files for bankruptcy after sudden closure – Boston News, Weather, Sports
Health care provider Compass Medical has filed for bankruptcy after abruptly closing its practices last week, records show.

“Today is a historic day in the State of Nebraska. It is a day where we are standing up and protecting our children so that they can have a better and brighter future,” Pillen…

An Illinois program to provide health care coverage to noncitizens, including illegal immigrants, will cost the state $1.1 billion for the upcoming fiscal year, officials said this week, an enormous increase from the $220 million initially earmarked for the benefit.
The health care program provides state-funded health care to immigrants age 42 and older who would otherwise qualify for Medicaid if they weren’t for their citizenship status. That includes those who are here legally on a green card for fewer than five years, and illegal immigrants. The state began providing Medicaid-like benefits to those 65 and over in 2020 and…
