Give Kentuckians input in their healthcare decisions and save millions of dollars for Kentucky taxpayers.

As promised, my administration disbanded the enormously expensive Kynect program. We have requested and successfully defended in court a Medicaid 1115 waiver that will be a model for the nation when implemented. This innovative plan will give Kentuckians the input they deserve into their healthcare decisions, provide better health outcomes and result in a healthier Kentucky. Here too, however, our work is not done. We will continue the implementation of this plan in our second term, resulting in millions of dollars of savings for Kentucky taxpayers.
