Lt. Governor Confident Georgia Could Administer Medicaid Work Requirements

“With all the modern-day technology, I’m certain we can figure out a system that is simple to use and easy to log and creates the accountability checkpoints necessary,” Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, shown last year, said Tuesday about Georgia’s ability to manage the administration of a work requirement for Medicaid.

Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan says he’s confident Georgia could manage the administration of a work requirement for Medicaid.

It’s a big idea on the table as the state prepares waivers to tweak its Medicaid program.

“With all the modern-day technology, I’m certain we can figure out a system that is simple to use and easy to log and creates the accountability checkpoints necessary,” Duncan told reporters Tuesday.
