On Wednesday, 3/31/04, the National Public Radio show "Day to Day" aired a five-minute segment on Medicaid estate recovery by Michigan Public Radio personality Rick Pluta. Quoted in favor of saving Medicaid for the poor by recovering from the estates of affluent Medicaid recipients were Michigan's Democratic Governor Jennifer Granholm and Center President Stephen Moses. Michigan is one of the last three states in the country to implement Medicaid estate recoveries, a program made legally mandatory a decade ago by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (OBRA '93). (The other holdouts were Georgia and Texas.) Listen to the NPR story HERE
