**********************
>From a CCHCC Hotline Client:

"I would have been homeless or dead without you.  You got me the health
care
I needed, and thanks to you, I now have Social Security disability income
and my house is warm in the winter and I have food to eat. You saved my
life. You are my angel." - Mr. M., CCHCC Hotline client
**********************

Dear Friends,
 
Most people know of CCHCC as the grassroots citizen action organization that
fights against harmful policies and practices by local health care
providers, or that works to mobilize people around legislative issues, such
as the Children's Health Insurance Program, Medicare Part D, or universal
health care. The public frequently knows about CCHCC when we make the news
with a protest or a press conference, or when we release a report.

But what most people do not know is that there is another, less public, side
to CCHCC - the side where dedicated CCHCC staff and volunteers work hard
through our service programs to help hundreds of local people every month.
Through three programs -- the Consumer Health Hotline, the Medicare 100/Plus
Program, and the Dental Referral Program -- CCHCC works to solve our
clients'
problems, and also to empower them to speak out and demand change in our
health care system. By supporting CCHCC, you can help us bring the voices
and priorities of these consumers to the national health care debate for
real solutions.

Please visit our website to read more about CCHCC's important service
programs, and to read other clients' testimonies:

programs:

If you are on our mailing list, you may already have received a letter from
us telling you about our programs and asking for your support. You can
respond to the letter by completing the enclosed pledge form, or you can go
online. All contributions are greatly appreciated!

If you or someone you know needs help with a health care problem, call our
Consumer Health Hotline at (217) 352-6533 and ask to speak with a Hotline
Advocate.

Thank you for your support!
