States with budget woes eye Medicaid dental programs
Disabled and unable to work, David Kueh put off dental care for six years until he became eligible for Medicaid. Only then did he have several damaged teeth removed to ward off infections he’s prone to as a hemophiliac. Adult dental coverage is optional under Medicaid and states like Ohio are weighing pulling dental programs from budgets amid stagnant revenue and rising health costs. The National Governors Association cites Medicaid reform as the top priority this year.

Student sues UNLV over B minus grade in protest
Bob Whitney, 52, sues the University of Nevada, Las Vegas after losing an appeal over a B minus in history. He alleges professor Moehring discriminated against him for conservative values and seeks at least $10,000 for emotional distress and costs. Whitney says Moehring’s fast lectures and notes loss hurt his GPA and loan eligibility. University officials say the complaint filed Jan 12 in Clark County District Court has no merit. Moehring and Bell declined comment.
