Ohio Medicaid Matters

We're a coalition of over 110 of the state’s largest human services agencies, health advocacy associations & hospital systems working to preserve Ohio Medicaid.

Abruptly dropping 770,000 Ohioans from Medicaid coverage would:

🏥Overwhelm hospitals with uninsured patients
💵Shift costs to state and local governments
📉Threaten Ohio’s economy and workforce stability

Tell your representatives Ohio can't afford the risk — we need a plan.

It's not too late, but time is running out. We're asking Ohio lawmakers to adopt a process that won't devastate our economy should federal Medicaid funding drop. Help us and learn more at our website: https://t.co/dRce2mweaV

We know you care about the 770K Ohioans who could lose Medicaid coverage. They need your help — and a plan to avoid chaos in our state. @DrTerryAJohnson @JaneTimkenOH @LangForOhio @LBlessing308 @Manning_Nathan @OBrienOH32 @repkoehler

We know our state leaders care about working-class Ohioans. Now's the time to show it. Will you support a phased transition to prevent an immediate and catastrophic discontinuation of Medicaid expansion? @ReynoldsForOH @al_landis @AlCutrona @BillReineke @brennerforohio

Carolyn works hard, but $1,000 every two weeks doesn't stretch far for a family. Medicaid means she doesn't have to sacrifice basic needs for her children. Read more testimonials at https://t.co/As9apjQUpv. #OhioMedicaidMatters

7 in 10 adults are worried that a significant reduction in Medicaid federal funding would lead to an increase in the share of uninsured children and adults in the U.S., including nearly half who are “very worried.” The latest KFF poll: https://t.co/NF7zsBPEOI

While much attention has been paid to Medicaid expansion rollbacks, OMM is raising awareness about another way the federal government is weighing cuts to Medicaid. Read our latest news release at https://t.co/dRce2mweaV.

"The latest draft of Congress’ 'big beautiful' tax and spending bill ... will increase death rates, cause later stage disease diagnosis, and threaten hospitals’ bottom line, experts say." https://t.co/yCfLE3NXRd

[Ohio Medicaid Matters @OMMCoalition]

“Last month a dozen House Republicans signed a letter expressing their ‘strong support...’ But the bill that ... now heads to the Senate would indeed cut Medicaid and deny health care to millions of Americans.” https://t.co/p6y15Hh8do

Medicaid is a driving force in fostering thriving families and communities across all parts of Ohio. That’s why we’ve joined Ohio Medicaid Matters, a coalition of some of the state’s largest human services agencies, health advocacy associations and hospital systems. @OMMCoalition

[OACHC @Ohiochc]

Yesterday, OACHC joined Ohio CHC advocates in Washington, D.C., for the Health Center Advocacy Fly-In. 🏛️ Leaders met with Ohio members of Congress to discuss Medicaid’s vital role in healthcare access. Together, we stand to #ValueCHCs and #ProtectMedicaid. More photos tomorrow!

It's not just the big cities that will suffer. Ohio's Appalachian counties face huge losses in health care coverage as well. Visit https://t.co/uDV847yfnj to learn why we're asking lawmakers to protect the health of our state.

[Ohio Medicaid Matters @OMMCoalition]

We are calling on Congress to reject harmful Medicaid cuts that threaten the foundation of Ohio’s economy.

Medicaid is far more than a budget line item.

It is a cornerstone of Ohio’s health and economic security.
