Florida governor sues feds over health care money
Florida Governor Rick Scott announced a lawsuit against the federal government over Medicaid expansion. He argues federal plans to cut LIP funding to pressure Florida into Obamacare violate the law and risk hospital payments to treat uninsured and low income patients. If LIP funds disappear, a $1.3 billion budget gap could result, and lawmakers may face a special session to resolve the finances.
