What is Paige Cognetti's position on rural hospital closures and rural healthcare?

Paige Cognetti opposes the Medicaid cuts and rural health system reductions contained in recent federal legislation, which she argues accelerate hospital closures in communities like those throughout PA-08. She has specifically criticized Bresnahan's $50 billion "Rural Health Fund" as a fig leaf — it does not come close to replacing the $137 billion in rural health system cuts his vote produced over ten years. She supports protecting Medicaid, reforming the insurance system, and applying antitrust enforcement to prevent hospital consolidation that leaves communities without options.
