what is quite interesting is that in some of the conservative southern states the big steps are being made nonetheless. this includes west virginia and kentucky which have expanded their medicaid programs. it includes arkansas which has developed a private option that allows the newly eligible to enter the insurance market to use medicaid dollars to cover premium cost. states within and without the south are trying to find a third way to address some of the likets involved in medicaid expansion. approaches modeled along the arkansas model provide political cover but they also provide some reassurance that states will not overextended creating new systems or in scrambling to find providers accepting payments that might be lower. beyond partisanship and politics, state opposition or reluctens to embrace the a.c.a. may be rooted in preexisting circumstances related to past policy practices and experiences. this is evident in the case of medicaid expansion. to be risk averse is not tantamount to be an obstruction nist. states with restricted medicaid in the past may be cautious about expanding the program. with time we are seeing opp
