Federal Funds Cut Threaten New York Medicaid
Governor Rockefeller backed a statewide compulsory health insurance plan as a solution to growing Medicaid costs. Commissioner George K. Wyman warned that federal matching cuts could raise state expenses, with House and Senate proposals aiming to slash federal Medicaid shares by 30 million to 150 million. He described the plan as a real American system offering free physician choice and patient choice, and noted 2.7 million in public assistance in the state with 1.7 million on Medicaid, tying it to higher local property taxes.
