Please sign this petition. Sickle Cell Anemia is unpredictable deadly
and can't be subject to a 30 day readmission rule. Diseases that are
incurable with very few treatment options leave patients vulnerable.
Care for SCA has many hurdles the patient's suffer and can ultimately
die
all why tying to justify that they are very ill. The often have
to spend a great deal of time just having to prove they are ill. Please
support our petition.http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/to-have-sickle-cell-disease.fb47?source=s.icn.fb&r_by=13054411

To Have Sickle Cell Disease Waived from 30-Day Readmission Rule
Petition by Bonnye Johnson FROM UIC PLEASE HELP
To be delivered to The Illinois State House, The Illinois State Senate, and Governor Bruce Rauner
"We the undersigned urge Illinois State Legislatures to support HR 0255 which urges the Department of Healthcare and Family Services to waive the 30-Day Readmission Rule for those with sickle cell disease.
There are currently 2,651 signatures. NEW goal - We need 3,000 signatures!
Petition Background
The 30-Day Readmission Rule states: Patients readmitted into a hospital/ medical institution within 30 days of discharge; the discharging hospital/ medical institution will be fined in the form of a reduction in reimbursement from the State for the patient's hospitalization. We DO NOT support the policy of penalizing hospitals who care for patients with sickle cell disease and the 30 day readmission penalty imposed on sickle cell disease. People suffering from this life long disease frequently have unplanned, unpredictable and recurring needs, such as controlling severe pain episodes that can only be managed in the hospital requiring multiple hospitalizations and readmissions in a 30 day period.
