PHOENIX (AP) — A partial eligibility freeze for Arizona's Medicaid program takes effect Friday.
Arizona is now not allowing new enrollments in the non-federally mandated part of its program that serves childless adults.
The change is being made as part of a package of changes to save $500 million to help balance the new state budget.

The state had planned to bar new signups for the childless adults starting last Friday.
However, a delay in federal consideration of the state's implementation delayed the start for a week.
