Brain Injury Patients Sue State

The state of Massachusetts discriminates against patients with brain injury. That's the essence of a class action lawsuit filed yesterday in a federal court in Springfield.

The four plaintiffs named in the suit live in nursing homes, but want to the state to provide services so they can live in the community. WBUR's Health and Science reporter Allan Coukell has more on the story.

This program aired on May 18, 2007. The audio for this program is not available.
