Patients argue county denying them aid
Lawyers representing disgruntled sick people repeated their arguments to an appeals court saying San Diego County is illegally denying them medical care. The group appeared to win a battle against the county last year when a Superior Court judge ruled that the County Medical Services program could not refuse to pay for treatment to persons earning more than $802 a month, however, the court later approved a new income limit when county supervisors upped the threshold to $1,078 a month.
