Georgia Puts Health Effort on Feds by Greg Bluestein and Misty Williams. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. December 24, 2012.
The opposition of Georgia Governor Nathan Deal to health care exchanges is put into context of decisions by 30 states, with mostly GOP leadership, to decline participation in the exchanges. Governor Deal states that while he does not want to thwart Obamacare, he does not have enough information and questions whether the exchange will meet Georgia needs. An interesting observation quoted in the article is from Georgians for a Healthy Future. She believes that it is probably better for HHS to implement the exchange in Georgia since it is committed to the goals of the law. Roughly 900,000 Georgians could participate in the exchanges scheduled to come online in 2014.
