Are you worried about losing unemployment benefits?

If Republicans in U.S. Senate don't vote to extend unemployment benefits, 50,000 Floridians will not get their weekly checks, beginning this month.

Are you one of those unemployed? Reporter Gary Pinnell is writing the situation. If you can contribute to the story, please e-mail gpinnell@highlandstoday.com, or call 386-5828.

Having trouble finding doctors who accept Medicare?

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has released its proposed 2010 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, which cuts Medicare reimbursements by 21 percent.

An American Medical Association bulletin has quoted doctors who say they won't take new Medicare patients, and that some doctors would close their practice to Medicare patients.

Are you a Medicare patient? Are you having trouble getting a new doctor? Are you a doctor who feels you must abandon that portion of your practice?

Senior reporter Gary Pinnell is writing about the situation. If you can contribute to the story, please e-mail g-pinnell@highlandstoday.com, or call 386-5828.
