Senate committee kills Gov. Scott's Medicaid expansion plan

Gov. Scott talks about next move after Senate committee kills Medicaid expansion plan

Posted: Updated:

A Senate committee has essentially killed Gov. Rick Scott's plan to expand Medicaid coverage to roughly 1 million of Florida's poorest residents. Instead, the committee proposed Monday that the state adopt a managed care system that requires patients have a co-payment.

Last week, a panel for Florida's House of Representatives also rejected expanding medicaid. Governor Scott stopped by Good Day Orlando to talk about his next move.
