So you've got two Medicaid populations. You have the traditional Medicaid, which we call access here. Then you have the Medicaid expansion population, which is also an access population. The distinction is If you are in the Medicaid expansion population and you are an able bodied worker, the federal government's going to repay the state 90% of what they pay. If you are disabled, we only repay 70%. So the question is, why are we paying more for the able bodied worker who's choosing not to work over the disabled workers? (05:56–06:09)
