Georgia’s Choice: Medicaid Expansion, Health Care Costs and What the Next Governor Can Change

Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy dig into the competing health care plans from Georgia’s two gubernatorial nominees with veteran health care reporter Ariel Hart. They examine Keisha Lance Bottoms’ push for full Medicaid expansion, Rick Jackson’s proposed “intelligent Medicaid expansion,” and the questions surrounding how either plan could work. Hart also weighs the strain on rural hospitals, the loss of ACA coverage and what the next governor can realistically change. Have a question or comment for the show?
