The last in a series of public forums on how to reform Medicaid in Kansas drew more than 300 people to the Overland Park Convention Center yesterday (WED). As Kansas Public Radio’s Bryan Thompson reports, Governor Brownback has said he wants to find ways to improve care for Medicaid clients while saving money over the long term.
Bryan Thompson has been KPR's Health Reporter since 2000. He's a lifelong Kansan, and a graduate of Wichita State University. He's been involved in radio news longer than he'd care to admit, serving as news director at stations in El Dorado, Liberal, and Salina before joining KPR.
