Any push for increased funding to MCH will only come from those previously mentioned politicians who've taken plenty of money from Geo Group in recent election bids. While State Hospitals work with minimal support from the Capitol. I'd say conditions have been purposely set by Geo corporation and these politicians to have State run facilities fail so privatization can prevail. They always say "we need smaller government " but that's only in employed persons as privation of state services in the recent past have been fiscally catastrophic.

The Dept. of State Health Services has contracted with Montgomery County who has subcontracted with Geo on this project. It's supposed to open in March, 2011 and financing has only been approved through the fiscal year (6 months?). The Dept of State Health Services is proposing to cut $44 million to address the budget shortfall (which will cut hospital beds - primarily forensic units) but, wants to expand funding for the Geo Care facility, the same group that has been successfully sued for lack of adequate health care!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
