Legislature's panel on health coverage gap holds first meeting
The Legislature’s joint working group on Idaho’s health coverage gap has convened its first meeting this morning. Co-Chairman Rep. Tom Loertscher, R-Iona, talked about “the resistance that we’re having among members” in the House. “I think mistakenly or otherwise, we thought that we were talking about a pure Medicaid expansion. And the director can speak for himself, but that is not what has ever been intended in Idaho,” he said. “We want to change the way we deliver all of Medicaid, and fit that with working in this population.”
