    Governor Won’t Support State-Federal Health Insurance

    TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) Gov. Sam Brownback says Kansas will have a federally run health insurance exchange, after he declined to support Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger’s application for a state-federal partnership.

    Brownback had said months ago he would wait until after Tuesday’s election before moving forward on health care. He announced his decision Thursday after meeting with Praeger, who sought the governor’s signature on a letter of support for a state-federal exchange.

    Brownback’s decision illustrates the divide over the federal health care law between the conservative Republican governor and the moderate Republican commissioner.

    States have until Nov. 16 to inform the federal government if they plan to create their own health insurance exchanges, partner with the federal government or have their exchanges run by federal agencies.
