People started lining up at the Cabinet for Health and Family Services headquarters in Frankfort well before the doors opened at 9 a.m.
State officials said they’re trying to “identify additional times and locations for in-person services” — though plans have not yet been finalized.
“Having outside help is going to speed that process up, and I am not willing to wait any longer for us to be able to do it internally,” Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said Monday.
