| Georgia Business Summit - "Impact of Healthcare on Georgia Businesses" |
|
Governor Perdue hosted several forum speakers to discuss federal healthcare and energy proposals that impact both large and small Georgia businesses. “Issues currently being debated in Washington will have a serious economic impact on businesses and state government. It is critical for citizens, businesses, and government officials to understand the financial realities of healthcare reform and energy legislation, both in the check books of Georgia families and in the state budget. This summit allows business leaders from across the state to learn the specifics of proposals being considered and to discuss how their ability to create and retain jobs will be affected.” - Governor Sonny PerdueBased on the healthcare bill passed by the Senate Finance Committee, the Georgia Department of Community Health projects nearly one million new Georgians would become eligible for Medicaid and Peachcare, costing the state $3.6 billion from 2014 to 2019 if all newly eligible sign up. If 80 percent of the newly eligible enroll, more than 740,000 new members would carry an additional benefit cost to the state of $2.4 billion over those same years.
