John Connolly, the Minnesota director of the Medicaid program, told WCCO that Medicaid cuts would lead to “impossible” decisions:
“The state would not have the capacity to absorb such a budget cut. It would likely force us to consider some impossible choices, in terms of eligibility – in other words, who is eligible and can enroll in the program, who qualifies to enroll, the kind of benefits and services that we cover, (and) would we have to reconsider some of the things we pay for in the Medicaid program,” Connolly said.
