Ohio's Medicaid Use

Article in this morning's Enquirer says that Ohio is one of only nine states that haven't asked the federal government to use Medicaid funds for assisted living for senior citizens. That may change as lawmakers say they're more open to Gov. Taft's call for such a program.

House Bill 43 would allow people already covered by Medicaid and are either living in nursing homes or receiving home care assistance from the state's Passport program participate.
