Medicaid Changes Face Uncertain Future

By Dan Gorenstein on Tuesday, November 9, 2004.

Health and Human Services Commissioner John Stephen will present his plan to overhaul the state's Medicaid program when he meets with lawmakers Wednesday/today.

Few specifics are known about his proposal.

But broad outlines include decreasing the state's nursing home population, families picking up a greater share of nursing home costs, and creating health savings accounts for some Medicaid recipients.

Until the election of John Lynch, this plan was on the fast track...but as New Hampshire Public Radio's Dan Gorenstein reports, the change in leadership has slowed the process, and brought a degree of greater scrutiny.
