This week on the FLATLINING Podcast from Fulcrum Strategies, CEO Ron Howrigon and Matthew Handley discuss political holdups to Medicaid expansion in North Carolina.  The House wants to separate the Medicaid from the state budget and pass it with a casino bill but the state Senate is refusing to agree.  So who gets hurt?  Is the state ready to handle more patients on Medicaid?  Why should you care?  Matthew and Ron break it down on the FLATLINING Podcast from Fulcrum Strategies.
