BILL CRAWFORD — GOP leadership seems witless on Medicaid math

BILL CRAWFORD “Gov. Tate Reeves and Republican lawmakers who resist Medicaid expansion have for years said that Mississippi cannot afford to extend health-care coverage to the working poor. They obviously don’t bother to do the math.” You see, the latest COVID relief package makes Medicaid expansion much more affordable. State Sen. Hob Bryan, chairman of the Senate Public Health Committee, told Mississippi Today, “there will be more money in the state treasury if we expand Medicaid than if we don’t.” State Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney explains. “The federal government puts up 80 cents of every dollar that we spend on Medicaid,” he told the Community Foundation for Mississippi’s local news collaborative. “If Mississippi were to expand, that amount would increase to 95 cents.”
