The Impact of Medicaid Expansion in North Carolina
TL;DR
Kody Kinsley, the secretary of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, played a crucial role in convincing the Republican-led legislature to pass Medicaid expansion in the state. Growing up without health insurance himself, Kinsley's personal experiences and ability to build bridges with Republican lawmakers helped push the expansion across the finish line. His efforts have brought him full circle, from being uninsured to leading the rollout of healthcare coverage to families in need.
