Iowa Senate leader wary on Medicaid privatization March 1
Senate President Pam Jochum questions the March 1 start for privatizing Iowa Medicaid management. Gov Branstad aims to move 560,000 recipients to out of state private firms, but federal approval remains pending. House and Senate leaders clash over projected savings while Heaton foresees cost containment and care shifts. Jochum notes only one of sixteen federal issues has been resolved.
