NC Medicaid Changes Delayed - Again

I previously reported briefly on the Medicaid changes required by the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005.  The effective date in North Carolina has been postponed several times, and it now appears that the new rules may not take effect until next year.  The reason is that North Carolina has yet to come up with final "undue hardship" exemptions as required by federal law.

I previously reported that the changes in the Medicaid rules from the Deficient Reduction Act were to become effective in North Carolina on March 1, 2007.  Now it appears that the implementation date has been moved to April 1, 2007.  See my earlier posts under the Medicaid category to read about the changes.
