New Report Pushes for Expanded Healthcare Coverage

There’s a new report that suggests Wisconsin could bring-in billions of dollars more by expanding healthcare coverage to more low income people. The Wisconsin Policy Forum released its look at Medicaid expansion yesterday. The report says Wisconsin could bring back nearly two billion-dollars from Washington, D.C. by adding more people to the state’s healthcare rolls. The report does caution that adding more people will mean more costs down the road, and could mean more crowded hospitals. Republican lawmakers have resisted expanding Medicaid in the state for years, saying there’s simply not a need to do it in Wisconsin.
