With all the technology that's going on in the country, Massachusetts has a lot of cities, yet they have a lot of rural country area.
That leaves a lot of people underserved.
So how do you as a senator find ways to legislate not only for the cities like Boston, but for the smaller areas that struggle with budget and because of that have a hard time taking care of their people?
How do you handle that so that those that are underserved can get help too?
Very true.
Do you have funding opportunities available for telehealth or digital health solutions focused on non-physical digital methods of providing healthcare support?
It won't be the same as a one-on-one meeting, but at least if there's an issue there, hopefully something can be done so it doesn't go into full-blown psychosis.
Now, you also serve as co-chair of the Joint Committee on Healthcare Financing, correct?
How does that intersect of mental health care and pharmaceutical affordability in Massachusetts?
Can you expand on that some as to how that works?
How do you see the role of pharmacies evolving to ensure people can access and afford the medications they need to manage their conditions, stabilize their health, and of course improve their quality of life?
Yes, that's right.
Yeah, that's true.
Yes, I get that.
I have had the opportunity to speak with several different people.
They have been able to find the correct medication.
They've come out of it.
They're living a good life.
It's just great.
But they lost 10 years doing this.
