(The Center Square) — New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has picked a Georgia-based company to take over the state's $9 billion home care industry, despite ongoing legal challenges and claims that the move will negatively impact patient care.
Hochul announced on Tuesday that Partnerships LLC will take over management of the state's Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program, a nearly 30-year-old service that funds home care services for the state's low-income elderly and disabled.Â
