Kansas Overhauls Medicaid KanCare sparking federal waiver talks
Kansas officials told a legislative committee progress on Medicaid overhaul and KanCare, with Shawn Sullivan citing over 1.3 million in savings from staff reductions and agency mergers. A federal waiver is sought to use federal Medicaid dollars for KanCare under three private managed care groups, slated to begin January 1. Kari Bruffett said negotiations with federal regulators continue, with a potential $1 billion savings over five years without benefits cuts.
