My statement on the new Medicaid work reporting requirement is below.

Short take: Winners = tech vendors
Losers = 1. people with chronic and acute conditions like cancer and SUD;
2. states trying to implement the rule responsibly.

After nearly 40 years shaping the national health policy landscape, our founding president and CEO, Dr. Drew Altman, has announced he will retire at the end of the year.

Under Dr. @DrewAltman’s leadership, KFF has become the nation’s leading independent source of health care policy information, anchoring pivotal debates with rigorous, nonpartisan research, polling, and reporting.

Montana plans to be one of the first states to enforce President Trump’s work mandate for Medicaid enrollees. The move will add another challenge for state health officials trying to plug a massive budget hole.

Civil legal aid was what worked. We want to make sure state officials understand civil legal aid is indispensable for people in our state. Help people of limited means - share this story with your Wisconsin legislators here: https://t.co/08wdlMYb4k (2 of 3)

More than 7,000 documented non-citizens in Wisconsin will no longer be eligible for food stamps, starting July 1.

That includes refugees, asylees and victims of human trafficking. Advocates worry this will strain food pantries already stretched thin:
