Show Medicaid cost total $1 billion The federal government will spend some $1 billion in the fiscal year ending July 1 on the Title 19 "medicaid" plan of federal fed-eral matching grants for medical medi-cal care for the disabled and indigent. The higher-than-e x p e c t e d cost has led to an Administration Administra-tion recommendation for legislation legis-lation to limit those eligible to those whose income is not more than 60 above the income eligible for state cash welfare payment. Delaware recently became the 26th state to have its Title Ti-tle 19 plan approved by the Dept. of Health, Education and Welfare. |
