Utah Gov. Gary Herbert on Monday approved...

...a bill that would partially expand Medicaid in the state. The bill also includes work requirements, and an enrollment cap if costs exceed a certain amount. The partial expansion would cover adults living at up to 100% of the poverty level, rather than the traditional expansion level of 138%. This would add about 90,000 people to the state's current Medicaid population of 288,874 lives. Utah voters approved full Medicaid expansion in the November election, which would have covered up to 150,000 people.
