Rick's Scott Proposal costs government more money

[UCmeNdc]

Its more efficient and costs less to give people insurance than to pay hospitals for caring for the uninsured retroactively. Rick Scott cannot grasp that fact.


Florida's funding is the first to expire on June 30 and Scott has filed a lawsuit, with support from Texas and Kansas, alleging the federal government is breaking the law by coercing states to expand Medicaid in order to get the hospital funds. The hospital funds are an optional program, not entitlement programs like Medicaid, meaning the federal government has broad discretion whether to grant them, experts say.
