After SPIN! Video: How can Medicare be improved in NC?
Published May 3, 2017
After SPIN! " Question to Chris and John – DHHS Secretary Mandy Cohen is asking for public input as to how to improve North Carolina’s managed care program for Medicaid. Specifically she wants suggestions for how to improve overall health, not just injuries or illnesses; help doctors and care providers transition to managed care; improve quality of care and pay for value. What suggestions would your offer?"

Eliminate it and get a waiver from DHHS under ACA to offer premium subsidy to allow people to keep their coverage when income falls under 100% of poverty... which is what the Democratic Party majority in Congress should have done in 2010.
