Pipalski: KY, How Affordable Healthcare was supposed to work The following contains Personal Opinions and Statements of the Writer, Ed Papalski, a Columbia businessman and a resident of Somerset, KY, not of ColumbiaMagazine.com. We're extremely proud of Gov. Beshear and the implementation of the Affordable Care Act in Kentucky. Click on headline for complete Ed Pipalski commentary. By Ed Pipalski Very heart warming story. Flashback to January 2012 and the Kentucky Legislature was a 1/2 Billion dollars short of their $1.00 match to every $2.00 Federal dollar on Medicaid. Kentucky had to contract out to Health Management Organizations (HMO) to provide Medicaid. They started with three HMOs and one has since failed. Statistics on Medicare distribution is 10 percent of the people consume 90 percent of the health services. How does adding tens of thousands of beneficiaries not add to Kentucky's budgetary crisis. Oh! by-the-way, the governor has expanded Medicaid without Legislative approval or funding. How are we going to pay for this? Too bad the New York Times didn't take a deeper look into Kentucky's health industry to get a real picture of how "Affordable" care is here. --Ed Pipalski Comments re article 63271 Kentucky How Affordable Healthcare was supposed to work This story was posted on 2013-11-14 03:49:19
