LABOR DIGS ITS TEETH INTO HIV DENTAL HELP by Harley Dennett
Medicare-funded dental care for people with HIV, raised in November to $4,250 per person over two years, is to be scrapped, possibly as soon as the 13 May budget. Labor voted against the increase last year, and has vowed to dump the Howard government’s $377 million Chronic Disease Scheme. The scheme allows people with complex conditions to receive bulk-billed treatment at private dental clinics without waiting lists, and under the protection of the Medicare Safety Net. Health Minister Nicola Roxon plans to use the savings to fund a $290 million program to reduce general waiting times in state-run public clinics starting from 1 July. Russell Westacott, ACON Director of Client Services, encouraged people with HIV to take advantage of the generous current scheme while it was still available.
School chief's Boston debut followed by Tenn. probe

"I was not aware of any of the corruption issues that are coming out now." The FBI contacted the Memphis superintendent's office after her departure as a routine part of its investigation, she said, and the agency has access to her old e-mails and calendar. "I do know people who have talked to the FBI within the school district, and I have certainly said if they needed any information from me that they could contact me," she said in a later phone interview. Asked whether she has been interviewed by the FBI, Johnson cut the telephone conversation short and said her ride home from work was waiting.
