Maryland Addressing Lack of Health Care for Hispanics

HYATTSVILLE, Md. - Maryland's Hispanic community has grown to about 10 percent of the total population, and many don't have health insurance.

A collaborative effort is under way in Maryland to provide health care to those who can't afford it. The focus is on Prince George's County, which has the highest rate of uninsured residents in Maryland.

In the Hispanic community, about 87 percent of adults lack medical insurance.

La Clínica del Pueblo and Doctors Community Hospital have teamed up to offer preventive and specialty care at a new location next to the Prince George's Plaza Metro Station.

I thought that obamacare took care of this. you would think by the outrageous premium and deductible increases I pay each year that I am at least paying for one of them. Do I get a picture of the adult that my money is paying for and maybe a crayon drawing?

You mean lack of health care for illegal aliens? I suggest they do like white people do. Get a job with benefits.
