BREAKING: North Carolina’s GOP-controlled Legislature passes Medicaid expansion on the Affordable Care Act’s 13th anniversary. House’s final vote was 87-24. The bill now heads to the desk of Gov. Roy Cooper — a longtime expansion proponent — for his signature.

The expansion legislation will not go live until the state passes a budget. This is still an active linked negoatiation with substantial leverage on all sides, so it could get messy. However, it is very likely that North Carolina will be running Medicaid Expansion effective the end of this year or early in 2024.
