North Carolina faces a $319 million Medicaid funding gap as lawmakers deadlock over separate health projects, risking care for vulnerable residents.
North Carolina faces a $319 million Medicaid funding shortfall despite prior appropriations, with legislative deadlock over separate projects like a Wake County children’s hospital and NC Care rural health initiative stalling progress.
The House passed bills to address the gap using reserve funds and managed care administration money, but the Senate rejected them, citing procedural issues and insisting on funding for the projects, which the House opposes without a broader budget agreement.
Governor Josh Stein supports the projects but urges separate consideration from Medicaid, warning of risks to vulnerable residents as application volume surges due to expansion.
