By Craig Andres | Feb. 10, 2020

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – Rebecca drove about 45 minutes to a GraceMed campus in Wichita on Monday.

“My son is Kenneth,” said Rebecca. “He’s here for some dental work.”

Rebecca uses GraceMed services. She used to get Medicaid herself but no longer has the service.

“Oh, I hope Medicaid gets expanded in Kansas. I’m watching. Not optimistic,” said Rebecca. “For me, I don’t get Medicaid anymore. I did when I was on disability when I was going through my cancer treatment, but now, they say I’m making a little bit too much money on my Social Security so I’m off of it now.”
