WASHINGTON, D.C. (August 8, 2016)—A new national poll of nearly 2,000 registered voters over age 65 sponsored by Bring the Vote Home (BTVH) found that a large majority of U.S. seniors oppose a Medicare policy requiring a government contractor to approve claims for physician-prescribed home health care services, which are often recommended by doctors for elderly patients following hospitalization to ensure a smooth transition from the acute setting to the home.
