Mississippi House, Senate conferees discuss Medicaid expansion
SUMMARY: The Mississippi House and Senate conferees on Medicaid expansion have begun public negotiations on their differing plans to provide health insurance to working Mississippians. The House conferees, led by Chairwoman Missy McGee, proposed a compromise plan for a hybrid Medicaid expansion that would cover individuals between 0% and 99% of the federal poverty level on managed care organizations, while those between 100% and 138% would be on the federal insurance exchange, with the state covering premiums and co-pays. Roughly 200,000 individuals would be affected by this plan. The Senate did not offer a compromise plan but expressed willingness to review the House proposal and data.
