Medicaid

But Pence, after intensive negotiations with the Obama administration, just announced his intent to take the money Obamacare provides for Medicaid expansion and to use it on his own terms to broaden health-care coverage for the working poor.

This is a good thing for his state and could be for a few other states. However, accepting Medicaid would be much better. It is a system in place whereas if many states adopted alternative, the job of assuring the efficacy of each would be a daunting and time consuming task.
