Kansans split over Medicaid expansion in ACA debate
Kansas lawmakers remain divided on expanding Medicaid under the ACA. The Senate approved a bill restricting expansion without legislative approval, while the House backs leaving the ACA and forming a multi state health funding compact. Critics say expansion would cut uncompensated care, citing 182000 residents in the gap and 78400 uninsured.
