State documents show that less than 30 percent of residents enrolled in the Healthy Indiana Plan would be required to comply with Gov. Eric Holcomb’s proposed work mandate. Holcomb has proposed making able-bodied, low-income residents work at least 20 hours a week for eight months a year in order to receive state-supported health care coverage through the plan. The Northwest Indiana Times reports that a third of participants already meet the requirements, while others receive exemptions.
