Health care compact veto urged by Praeger and groups
Kansas groups and state officials urged Gov. Sam Brownback to veto House Bill 2553. The measure would join the Interstate Health Care Compact placing Medicare and Medicaid funding under state control, a move critics say would jeopardize benefits for Kansans relying on the program. Praeger and AARP Kansas argued it could reduce protections and savings, while supporters claim no effect on Medicare.
