“
More than just about any other state, we will benefit from Medicaid expansion because our benefit levels are so low.”
-John McInerney, health policy director at the Commonwealth Institute for Fiscal Analysis.
The Richmond Times Dispatch reports that with Medicaid expansion, up to 425,000 of the 1 million uninsured Virginians can be eligible for health coverage.
The Supreme Court will decide within the next two weeks on the Affordable Care Act, which includes a Medicaid provision. A decision to turn over just the individual mandate would leave the Medicaid expansion in place.
