    Author: Benjamin GC.
    Journal: Physician Exec; 2001; 27(6):74-6. PubMed ID: 11769175.
    Abstract:
    Seeking to keep his promise to give states more flexibility while expanding health insurance coverage to low-income people, President George W. Bush released a proposal to reform Medicaid and The Children's Health Insurance Program. This initiative, the Health Insurance Flexibility and Accountability Act (HIFA), represents a significant change in Medicaid policy. Whether states will find this proposal a useful tool to expand coverage remains to be seen.
