Taking liberty to the airwaves: BIPPS talks Medicaid on WKCT

Jim Waters, vice president of policy and communications, will be on Bowling Green's 930 WKCT-AM's "Drive Time" at 5:20 p.m. (central) this afternoon to discuss the Bluegrass Institute’s new report on the unsustainability of Kentucky's Medicaid program by UK economist John Garen, Ph.D.

Listen here.

Waters advocates for fundamental reform and questions whether managed care alone – which Gov. Steve Beshear is touting – will achieve the kind of savings needed to get Kentucky’s Medicaid budget back on solid footing.
