Hall Render attorney Tim Kennedy received the Sagamore of the Wabash in recognition of his work on behalf of Indiana hospitals to craft the Healthy Indiana Plan 2.0 (HIP 2.0), the state’s plan for health care coverage expansion.
Governor Mike Pence presented the prestigious award to the Indiana Hospital Association (IHA) team working on the HIP 2.0, including IHA President Doug Leonard, IHA Vice President of Communications Brian Tabor and Sally Cleveland of Blue & Co. Kennedy and the IHA team worked with Governor Pence’s staff to create the HIP 2.0, which will expand Medicaid coverage to 350,000 low income Hoosiers who are currently uninsured.
The Sagamore of the Wabash is bestowed by the governor of Indiana as a personal commendation to those who have contributed greatly to the Hoosier heritage or who have rendered a distinguished service to the state or to the governor.
