Issues: Entitlements and the Safety Net Health and Health Care

In reaction to the legislature adjourning without passing needed funds to continue Medicaid Managed Care implementation, spokesperson Megan Thorpe offered the following comment:

Republican legislators were irresponsible to end the session without moving health care forward. By choosing gridlock instead of negotiating a compromise, they delayed Medicaid transformation and broke their promise to vote on expansion, leaving 500,000 North Carolinians without affordable, quality healthcare.
