Report: Former Mississippi Medicaid director to run federal program
Drew Snyder is expected to assume leadership of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ Medicaid division after President-elect Donald Trump is sworn into office Jan. 20.
We have launched a long-term project that focuses on the imminent crisis and potential solutions to it — including Medicaid expansion. Our project will, first and foremost, thoroughly define the extent of the Mississippi health care crisis. We will also define what, exactly, Medicaid is. And perhaps most importantly, we will squarely confront the politics of the crisis.
One year from now, when all 174 legislative seats and eight statewide offices are on the ballot, every voter will have the ability to intimately understand where their leaders stand on the health care crisis and what they have done — or not done — to address it. We’ll make sure of it.
