Queridos amigos,<\/p>

Como operadores de las dos \u00fanicas cl\u00ednicas de salud gratuitas del condado de San Mateo, les escribimos para compartir lo que estamos viendo en primera l\u00ednea y c\u00f3mo nos estamos preparando para afrontar un momento de necesidad sin precedentes.<\/p>

El condado de San Mateo prev\u00e9 que 40.000 residentes perder\u00e1n la cobertura de Medi-Cal el pr\u00f3ximo a\u00f1o, incluidos los ni\u00f1os.<\/strong> Adem\u00e1s, a medida que las familias pierdan los subsidios de la Ley de Cuidado de Salud Asequible (ACA) y dejen de ser elegibles para la cobertura, muchos que contaban con una atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica estable se enfrentar\u00e1n a decisiones imposibles entre la atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica, el alquiler y la alimentaci\u00f3n. Las afecciones m\u00e9dicas agudas y cr\u00f3nicas quedar\u00e1n sin tratamiento, lo que provocar\u00e1 una peligrosa falta de atenci\u00f3n. Esto tambi\u00e9n ejercer\u00e1 una presi\u00f3n excesiva sobre los servicios de urgencias. La atenci\u00f3n preventiva se convertir\u00e1 en un lujo inalcanzable para muchos.<\/p>

Detr\u00e1s de estas cifras hay personas reales. Padres, vecinos, amigos que acuden a nosotros con algo m\u00e1s que preocupaciones de salud: traen consigo inquietud, incertidumbre y miedo por su salud, el bienestar de sus familias y mucho m\u00e1s.<\/p>

Actualmente, Samaritan House atiende entre 2000 y 3000 pacientes al a\u00f1o mediante un sistema altamente eficiente de personal y voluntarios. Somos el centro de atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica, dental y de salud mental para estas familias. Ahora, podr\u00edamos convertirnos en la \u00fanica opci\u00f3n de atenci\u00f3n para miles m\u00e1s. Samaritan House se est\u00e1 preparando para un aumento significativo en el n\u00famero de pacientes, ya que muchas personas perder\u00e1n su cobertura m\u00e9dica debido a nuevas leyes o primas inasequibles.<\/p>

Mediante una planificaci\u00f3n cuidadosa y la colaboraci\u00f3n comunitaria, mantenemos nuestro compromiso de garantizar que todas las personas de nuestra comunidad tengan acceso a la atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica que merecen, independientemente de su capacidad de pago. Trabajamos en estrecha colaboraci\u00f3n con nuestros socios del sector p\u00fablico y privado de la salud, as\u00ed como con el Condado de San Mateo, para ampliar nuestra capacidad y construir juntos una red de seguridad m\u00e1s s\u00f3lida.<\/p>

Puedes ayudarnos a estar preparados. Si usted es un profesional m\u00e9dico, un profesional de pr\u00e1ctica avanzada, un enfermero especializado o un especialista en salud conductual, considere la posibilidad de unirse a nosotros como voluntario regular.<\/strong> Cada hora de voluntariado nos ayuda a brindar atenci\u00f3n de alta calidad a quienes no tienen a d\u00f3nde ir.<\/p>

Con gratitud,<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>
