HUDSON â The St. Croix County Board showed its support for expanding Medicaid as part of the Wisconsin state budget in a 15-3 vote.Â
The motion was mainly about taking a symbolic stand, as the budget is currently on the governorâs desk awaiting approval.Â
That stand is still an important one to take, Economic Support Administrator Ronda Brown said.Â
The expansion would have the state accept an additional $1 billion in new federal funding for the next two years, in addition to $635 million Wisconsin would already receive by becoming a Medicaid expansion state. An approval of the expansion would mean increased behavioral health services in the county and across the state. It would allow for a great focus on preventative care rather and wellness management, rather than reactive care, Brown said.Â
