Medicaid Threats in the Upcoming Congress
This paper focuses on harmful legislative Medicaid proposals that have been floated in the past and that Congress should continue to resist.
Recent legislative proposals would cause people to lose health coverage, increase enrollees’ costs, and destabilize health care providers. States, already struggling in a difficult budgetary environment, would be forced to make deep cuts to Medicaid. Members of Congress shouldn’t ignore the impact of these proposals on Medicaid enrollees, providers, or states as they prepare to debate Medicaid next year.
