Derek Dowsett is the Producer of the County Seat. Now entering his 11th season of the program, he has received what he considers a "Crash Course" in County Government.

Medicaid Expansion has been a hot topic among a number of states. Utah is currently in the midst of deciding how to go about expanding Medicaid. Our program looks at a couple of the plans that have been proposed by the Senate and the House; along with how those changes would impact county services that deal with behavioral health and substance abuse.

The issues for counties are that they are the last line of defense in providing care for people who can’t afford insurance. Regardless of what happens, counties will not turn people away, currently people aren’t receiving the help they need until they are further along in their illness and in many cases the sheriff’s office has been involved.
