Number of Kids on Medicaid Miscounted

The Oregon Health Authority came away with a mostly clean bill of health after a Secretary of State audit.  Auditor Gary Blackmer says they looked at how many kids were enrolled in a federally funded program to get health coverage for uninsured kids. It turns out the Health Authority had miscounted the eligible kids and applied for four million dollar it didn't deserve. Fortunately the error was caught before the money was paid out.
