Show Notes

In the latest edition of the NC Coalition for Fiscal Health’s podcast, “The Cost of Health,” you’ll hear the second part of our talk with Cohen as she walks us through her vision for Medicaid expansion and creating a healthier North Carolina.

You might remember from part one that a big goal of Medicaid expansion is filling what’s called the “coverage gap,” or the group of people who make too much money to qualify under current Medicaid standards, but not enough to be eligible for a subsidy under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

Discussed in this episode: NCCARE360
