There are going to be some, I'm sure some politicians who say what you're doing here is harming the Medicaid program. We're trying to save the Medicaid program from dysfunctional state bureaucrats. If you allow hundreds of millions, billions, even more money to go out the door, not to healthcare services for low income families, but to fraudsters, you eventually are going to destroy the Medicaid program. So this is why we say red state, blue state. This does not need to be a political or a partisan issue. (45:04–45:17)
