Why some opposed Sunday hunting in Pa. There's an official America250PA beer. And a deep dive with America250 PA’s exec. director.

A former U-S Attorney in Pittsburgh will lead a new White House task force to eliminate fraud.

Pennsylvania home care workers, who provide daily caregiving to seniors and others, say an additional $800 million dollars is needed to raise reimbursement rates and pay for workers. They want to see some of that money in the next state budget.

A York doctor accused of sexually abusing women under his care at a drug treatment clinic pleaded guilty Monday to a handful of the 92 charges he faced.

Many businesses across the country and across Pennsylvania are seeking tariff refunds from the federal government.

And a deep dive:

Last June, our friends at WPSU reported on public outcry surrounding the increased use of “facility fees” at Geisinger outpatient clinics in the State College area.

Since then, more than 20 people have reached out to our colleagues in WPSU's newsroom with their experiences and many remaining questions.

And these questions and issues are happening well beyond State College and Geisinger in communities across Pennsylvania.

Today we begin a three-part series, looking into WHAT a facility fee is, WHY hospitals charge them, and what’s being done at the state level to protect people against surprise bills from facility fees.

Today, in part one, Sydney Roach from our friends at WPSU introduces what a facility fee is by sharing listeners' stories.
