Kasich Touts Medicaid In NC

Former Ohio Gov. John Kasich and other speakers on Tuesday shared the experiences of states expanding Medicaid to more working adults, as North Carolina legislators carefully weigh whether they should now accept the coverage. Kasich, a former Republican presidential candidate, and presenters on programs in Montana, Indiana and Michigan, told a General Assembly study committee about successes and challenges after the states accepted expansion through the 2010 federal health care law. Kasich, who helped begin Medicaid in Ohio in 2014, also offered a plea of compassion to the lawmakers, making a biblical reference to helping the least fortunate.
