Health and Human Services Commissioner Nick Toumpas

He's been head of HHS for three months, but Nick Toumpas didn’t come in cold - he was previously assistant and then interim Commissioner. He's inherited issues his predecessor, John Stephen, had to deal with: Medicaid, mental health and long term care, but Toumpas also has a tough economy and state budget cuts that have hit his department particularly hard. We’ll talk about the issues he’s begun to tackle and how he’s working around major budget cuts.
