Not a dime’s worth of difference:
The state moved formally Friday to make changes to the Medicaid program with the aim of adding hundreds of thousands of people to the government insurance plan despite opposition from state Republican leaders.
Gov. Roy Cooper announced this week he would seek to expand Medicaid as allowed under the Affordable Care Act. The details of the plan were made public Friday evening. Proposed changes to the state plan must be posted on the state Department of Health and Human Services website for 10 days before a request goes to the federal government office that oversees Medicaid, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS. The state is accepting comments on the proposal.
Republican legislative leaders are already fighting it.
If only the Green Party had been able to throw the election to Pat McCrory, we could have gotten real reform in North Carolina. But instead Roy Cooper’s obsession with IDENTITY POLITICS means he won’t do anything for poor people in the state.
