[Bill Number] SB 4 No alternate bill number [Summary] No Health Benefits Exchange or Medicaid Expansion. Rejects Medicaid expansion possible from the Affordable Care Act, meaning 500,000 North Carolinians will not have health care coverage – even though the first three years of coverage would have been paid for completely by the federal government and 90 percent thereafter. North Carolina will not have its own state health benefits exchange to purchase insurance – instead having an exchange set up by the federal government. Signed into law. [Rating] Legislation takes North Carolina in the wrong direction. [Area of Interest]
