During 2014–17, Medicaid expansion was associated with a 4.4 % to 4.7% reduction in state spending on traditional Medicaid. Savings on mental health, in the corrections system, and from reductions in uncompensated care range from 14 % of the cost of expansion in KY to 30% in AR.

How does #MedicaidExpansion affect state budgets? Is expanding eligibility for Medicaid a good deal for states? https://t.co/qmAiOBXI8x

Hey #medicaidITfolks - can you help??

[Matt Cutts @mattcutts]

State, local, & other government folks can ask for technical help here: https://t.co/JouX5J41xl

Techies can also volunteer.

This isn't affiliated with the US Digital Service nor with the US government. Many of the volunteers have worked at @USDS, @18F or @codeforamerica though.
