Fri 6/28/13 at Noon & 7PM A new report by The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice shows that most Medicare patients prefer to live their final days at home, rather than in the hospital. We'll talk with Dr. David Goodman, one of the authors of that report.  Send your questions or comments to vermontedition@vpr.net.

We'll also talk to Senator Patrick Leahy about the immigration bill currently working its way through the Senate.

Bob Kinzel has been covering the Vermont Statehouse since 1981 — longer than any continuously serving member of the Legislature. With his wealth of institutional knowledge, he answers your questions on our series, "Ask Bob."
