I continue to be very impressed with the Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

I'm very glad they were given recognition.

Some years ago, they took care of my brother as he passed away from a brain tumor. They were EXCELLENT!

Obamacare a concern for school districts, particularly rural ones

Kansas school officials are preparing for new costs associated with implementation of the Affordable Care Act. The new fees and insurance coverage requirements are expected to hit all employers of more than 50 people to some degree, but smaller, rural school districts are struggling to figure out how they can afford to make it all work. Dropping employee health plans altogether might be the best solution for some, officials say. At larger districts such as Topeka USD 501, officials say they'll be able to handle the new requirements OK but are still "wading through" what all they need to do for 2014.

School administrators here say they are alarmed and confounded by the looming, new costs they face with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act. “We've ...
