GOP Grassley with a sound idea: "Chair Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and ranking committee member Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) on Wednesday introduced a compromise, bipartisan measure that would temporarily extend Medicaid coverage to survivors of Hurricane Katrina, CongressDaily reports (Rovner/Heil, CongressDaily, 9/15). The bill, estimated to cost $5 billion to $7 billion, would have the federal government for five months pay 100% of Medicaid costs for survivors from Louisiana, Mississippi and parts of Alabama who have relocated to other states, with the option of extending the coverage for an additional five months. In addition, the federal government would pay through the end of 2006 100% of Medicaid costs for all beneficiaries in Louisiana, Mississippi and counties in Alabama that have been designated as disaster areas (CQ Today, 9/15)." kaisernetwork.org
