John Kitzhaber said the Court ruling “will help all Oregonians, including the 600,000 Oregonians who are uninsured, have better access to health coverage. It’s a vindication of the Obama Administrations bold approach. Oregon’s health transformation initia- tive is well underway. We’re moving forward with Coordinated Care Organ- izations that will transform Medicaid for better health and lower cost. And the Oregon Health Insurance Exchange will be a central marketplace where in- dividuals and small businesses can shop for health plans and receive help paying for coverage.” The Court ruling allows states to de- cline the Medicaid expansion without losing federal money for their existing Medicaid programs. If the 26 states that challenged the law opt out, an estimated 8.5 million people would not be cov- ered by Medicaid, ProPublica reported. Chief Justice Roberts joined Justices Sonya Sotomayor, Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Elena Kagan in the 5-4 decision. Bruce Duncan, TriMet Monthly Rated Employees.
