Good catch

Posted in:

Illinois

From an editorial today in the Bloomington Pantagraph:

[Governor Blagojevich] also lamented 10 percent annual increases lately in Medicaid costs, but then said he wanted to make 74,000 more people qualify for the state’s “Family Care” program, which is funded through Medicaid. He also added people last year. If he wants to “hold the line” on costs, he has to hold the line on qualifiers.

That’s a good catch by the Pantagraph folks, and I had already planned on writing about this tomorrow. Stay tuned.
