Beginning in April, a pandemic-era law that changed access to Medicaid is set to expire. Six million low-income people could lose access to health care.
A pandemic-era law that kept people automatically enrolled in Medicaid is expiring soon. In the spring of 2020, the federal government recognized that it would be a really bad time for people to lose access to health care, so it changed the rules to keep low-income people insured. From WHYY in Philadelphia, Alan Yu has more.
YU: If someone makes a mistake on their forms to get Medicaid, they could be denied coverage. In March, 2020, federal legislation required states to keep people on the program as long as the country was in a public health emergency. They no longer had to reapply to stay in. LYDIC: I know so many patients who have now been able to really finally get ahead of a lot of their health conditions, to be living with a chronic and acute health condition and know that they are going to be able to consistently access medication.
