Kansas awaits federal decision on Medicaid waiver
Kansas officials led by Gov. Brownback report ongoing talks with the federal Health and Human Services Department over a KanCare waiver to reshape Medicaid. If approved, the plan would let Kansas tailor the program while three managed care organizations run services for about 380,000 low income or disabled residents. The administration expects a decision soon with changes slated to begin in January and extra letters and meetings guiding beneficiaries through new MCO assignments and protections for providers and recipients.

Gov. Sam Brownback and senators Roberts Moran refused to write letters of support for Topeka Public Schools Race to the Top grant, citing concerns over Common Core and federal overreach. Superintendent Julie Ford said Jenkins supported the district, while the grant would fund three years of reforms focused on early learning and narrowing achievement gaps.
