Ohio study says Medicaid expansion could save money
A Health Policy Institute of Ohio and Ohio State University study presented to the Senate shows expanding Medicaid to include about 275,000 more poor Ohioans could be cheaper than inaction. It finds savings of about 1.5 billion by 2025 if costs are kept rising at 4 percent, even if the federal government retreats from covering 90 percent of expansion costs. Institutions stress political hurdles amid Kasich’s push and GOP resistance.

Fewer voting precincts in Butler County for 2013 election
Butler County will reduce to fewer precincts in the fall 2013 elections using a Geographic Information Systems map to redraw districts. The move eliminates 15 of 299 precincts, reallocates locations, and aims to improve voting accuracy and reduce provisional ballots. County officials note GIS mapping corrects past misassignments and should lower verification time.
