Every year, Chuck commits to traveling to all62 counties in New York to meet with constituents.
U.S. Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer today revealed bipartisan legislation that is critical for UHS Chenango Memorial Hospital (CMH) to continue serving Chenango County. Schumer said, this legislation called the Rural Hospital Access Act of 2017 will extend 2 vital Medicare payment programs, which is essential to the health of rural hospitals like Chenango Memorial and other hospitals across Upstate New York. Without quick intervention by Congress, Schumer said CMH could lose nearly $21 million in critical funding, which could be disastrous for senior citizens, working families and the quality of care in the Chenango County and the Southern Tier.
