Medicaid Reform Call Is Urgent says State Senator Adams
State Senator William E. Adams chairing the Joint Legislative Committee on Revision of the State Social Welfare Law urges an immediate study of Medicaid. He criticizes federal action as irresponsible and argues a legislative exam is overdue to fix a program pushed through Albany. Medicaid costs hit upstate counties with 45 percent tax rises in some cases. August bills totaled 62.5 million, over half of all welfare and medical payments, with 469,626 medical care recipients. 289,969 were medical needy under loosely drawn eligibility rules. A wholesale revision, not patches, is needed and compulsory health insurance may be considered.
