Kansass efforts to punch holes in the safety net program Medicaid were blocked Monday by officials who said they would have been too punitive.
Kansas had sought a three-year lifetime limit on the benefits that ensure children, the poor, elderly, and the disabled can receive medical care.
We are one of five states Wisconsin, Maine, Arizona and Utah to request the lifetime limit for Medicaid, the program that Gov. Jeff Colyer renamed and revamped as KanCare when he was lieutenant governor under Sam Brownback.
