Federal officials have decided to carry on a Medicaid waiver program that would assist support the state's new universal health insurance program.
It allows Massachusetts to carry on receiving nearly 600 (m) million dollars a year over the next two years to cover enroll Medicaid recipients in managed care plans.
The deal between the state and the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services was proclaiming by Governor Mitt Romney and Senator Edward Kennedy.
Romney signed the universal health care act in April. It made Massachusetts the first state to need everybody to have health insurance -- employing a mixture of subsidies and penalties to make insurance more reasonable and to require that people be insured.
