McAuliffe, who is running to reclaim the governor’s office, says expanding access to healthcare starts by lowering premiums.
“We need to seek the 1332 waiver for our reinsurance program that we need here in Virginia,” he said.
If elected, McAuliffe says he’ll create a Medicaid buy-in program that will be available on a state-based exchange. He says this will help people who may not qualify for Medicaid but cannot afford private insurance.
