(Springfield, IL) — Illinois could lose 40-billion dollars over the next decade if Congress changes the rules for Obamacare. A number of Illinois healthcare leaders yesterday told lawmakers that changes in how the federal government pays to take care of the three-million people on Medicaid in Illinois will cost them. The Republican plan to move past Obamacare allows states more freedom to ”manage” Medicaid, but will likely also mean less money for states like Illinois.
