Medicaid Needs Surgery

Medicaid Needs Surgery: "The basic problem with Medicaid is that Washington foots the bulk of the bill, yet most of the administrative decisions are made at the state level. For poorer states, like Mississippi, 77 cents of every dollar spent comes from federal coffers; for wealthier states, it's closer to 50 cents. Overall, roughly 57 percent of Medicaid's budget is from Washington."
