ChiefHealthcareExecutive (3/26, Southwick) reports, “Hospitals have been warning that changes to Medicaid programs would mean millions of Americans would lose coverage in the near future, and a new analysis offers an estimate on how many would be affected.” The report, from the Urban Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, suggests that “as many as five to 10 million Americans would lose coverage from Medicaid in 2028.” The report indicates “between 3 million and 7 million could lose Medicaid coverage due to new work requirements, while 2 million to 3.1 million will lose coverage due to their eligibility being checked more frequently.”
