JASON BLACK FROM CRT, spoke to Brad and Paul about,Community Renewal Team (CRT) offers two valuable services for individuals and families to help stay warm throughout the coming winter months: CRT's Energy Assistance program and CRT's statewide Weatherization program (this is the official program for the entire state of Connecticut)

State Rep John Frey is representing the Ridgefield area, which has been hit HARD by the Tropical Storm, and he joined Gary Byron to talk about Eversource's poor performance.

A proposed bill PB317 has been written by CT State Senator Eric Berthel which proposes to require insurance companies to cover bariatric surgery benefits. Despite coverage by Medicaid and Medicare in our state, the majority of private insurance plans do not offer bariatric surgery as a benefit. When the ACS was passed by Obama, the essential benefit in Connecticut was based on the current coverage by our biggest HMO: Connecticare. As a result Obamacare has NOT covered bariatric surgery. Most insurers do not and have not been forced to offer the benefit. Many of our patients have switched to Medicaid for coverage despite having good jobs. This has caused a burden to taxpayers. State employees also have bariatric surgery coverage. Darren Tishler spoke to Brad and Paul about it
