Where We Live: Victoria Veltri
    

      

	Connecticut’s new healthcare advocate, Victoria Veltri is tasked with helping residents through the maze of health care laws, regulations and roadblocks.



	Veltri’s involved in disputes between insurance carriers and health care providers; disputes about the state’s Medicaid program for low-income adults; and about the implementation of state health exchanges.

	She says her office is being bombarded with cases as she tries to clear up confusion over state and federal health care reform....and tries to get people the care they need.


	Today, where we live, your chance to ask questions of the State healthcare advocate.
