Ohio Medicaid Expansion Backed By GOP Gov. John Kasich

Quote from AK Forty Seven:

The feds paying 90 % is permanent

Federal Government Will Assume 93 Percent of Expansion Costs Over 2014-2022


Specifically, the federal government will, for the first three years (2014-2016), assume 100 percent of the costs of covering those made newly eligible by the health reform law.[6] Federal support will then phase down slightly over the following several years (95 percent in 2017, 94 percent in 2018, and 93 percent in 2019). By 2020 and for all subsequent years, the federal government will pay 90 percent of the costs of covering these individuals.

and in what year does the 90% funding end? Yes, the press I have seen on this says the funding horizon ends in 2026. Do have information to the contrary?

"The federal government will pay 100 percent of the costs of the new beneficiaries from next year through 2016, after which the share will gradually decline until it reaches 90 percent in 2022 and future years "

Can you post a link that says it ends in 2026

You may be correct. I am trying to find the reference in recent local articles.

I agree it would be a bad deal for states if they had to pick up the tab in 2026 but I think the 90 % is permanent
