AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Healthcare Costs: Care New England says inadequate Medicaid reimbursement, rising labor and supply costs, and uncompensated care are contributing to a projected $20 million fiscal 2026 shortfall. Data and AI tools may help providers find efficiencies beyond simple cost cuts. Business Regulation: South Kingstown approved strict limits on data centers, citing heavy demands on electricity and water. On the Ballot: Rhode Island voters face bond questions funding economic development, housing, parks and flood prevention, among other projects. Small-Business AI: Senator Jack Reed and Bryant University announced $1.6 million for free AI training and consulting to help local businesses adopt the technology and compete. Jobs and Workforce: A RIPEC report finds unemployment falling and consumer demand strong, but the workforce is shrinking—raising questions about the state’s labor supply and economic momentum.
