Raimondo Forming Medicaid Work Group

Governor Gina Raimondo is forming a working group to help deal with soaring Medicaid costs the state is incurring.  Raimondo has issued an executive order establishing the working group charged with reinventing Medicaid.  The state expects to spend well over two-billion dollars this fiscal year on Medicaid, which is the state health coverage plan for low income residents.  The state's per person cost of a Medicaid enrollee is the highest in the nation.
