Thousands added to Medicaid through expansion already have coverage

At the same time, state officials appear to still need valid numbers on how many people who already receive taxpayer-funded coverage or treatment elsewhere will now be added to Medicaid, even though officials cite specific cost-projections associated with those groups.
