Here are some other headlines from around the state. |
Ticket to WorkReturn to index of stories... |
Governor Jeanne Shaheen signed into law today a bill that will enable People with disabilities to keep their health care coverage while holding full time jobs. Currently, those people lose some of their Medicaid services if they work full time. Shaheen says that means many people are forced to remain unemployed in order to keep the benefits they need. The new law calls for employed disabled people to pay part of the cost of continuing their coverage. |

The financial troubles at The Pulp and Paper Company of America in Berlinhave trickled down to workers, who were turned away when they tried to cash their paychecks yesterday. The company owes the city about one-point-three million in back taxes. This spring, it agreed to repay 100-thousand dollars a week, but has missed the last four payments. The company then had some money wired in, and the problem was resolved by afternoon. |

New Hampshire hunters hoping to bag moose this fall can now find out if they will get permits to do so. The computer-generated drawing from about 15-thousand submissions was held at Fish and Game headquarters for the 585 permits. The state Fish and Game department says odds of getting a permit are about one in 25 for New Hampshire residents and one in 50 for nonresidents. Permits for New Hampshire residents cost 100 dollars, for nonresidents 300 dollars. The season is set for October 20th through 28th. |

Hospital ExpansionReturn to index of stories... |
AP-NH--Hospital Expansion hmrman State board gives final OK to hospital expansion -- State regulators have given final approval to a major expansion of Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital in Lebanon The hospital, part of Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, plans to expand its oncology center and an ambulatory surgery center and add examining rooms and parking. The Health Services Planning and Review Board had given preliminary approval to the plan last month. Yesterday's final vote cleared the way for virtually the entire expansion plan, except for a brain scanning equipment the hospital had wanted to add. The plan had faced opposition from Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital in Lebanon, which worried about how the expansion would affect competition. But officials backed off after Mary Hitchcock officials agreed to work with them to improve the region's health care. AP |
