TILLIS STATEMENT ON MEDICAID AUDIT


Raleigh House Speaker Thom Tillis (R-Mecklenburg) released the following statement today regarding an audit of the states Medicaid system by North Carolina Auditor Beth Wood: I am concerned, but not surprised, by the results of the audit of North Carolinas Medicaid system. The audit is further proof of inefficiencies and mismanagement at many levels of the Medicaid system that cannot be tolerated. It is apparent that improvements must be made to ensure that individuals dependent on Medicaid are adequately served by the system. We cannot allow bureaucratic incompetency to negatively affect North Carolinas taxpayers. I look forward to working with Gov. McCrory and Secretary Wos to fix what has become a broken Medicaid system in our state.
