If I could ask the Senator another question in response to what she just said, not only is it a win-win, being lower cost and better quality care, but I believe the Senator said that there is actually a third win here. There is the win of lower cost, there is the win of better quality care, but for seniors there is a huge win of maintaining your independence and being able to stay at home. It is hard to put a price on that, but if you are facing the choice of having to leave your home and having to go to a more restrictive health care setting, being able to stay at home is a very big plus. Really, it is not win-win, it is win-win-win.
