New blog looking at marketplace enrollment among those previously with #Medicaid and #CHIP in May. Compared to the 1.5 million people disenrolled, there were 124,000 people selecting a marketplace plan - only 8.3%. Focus should be on reducing procedural terminations & reinstating the eligible:

The House of Representatives will likely take up a bipartisan health transparency bill this week. It includes two sound #Medicaid drug pricing provisions related to prohibiting spread pricing & a survey of pharmacies' drug costs.

Patients are facing critical shortages of needed generic drugs, including widely used chemotherapy drugs. But a draft House bill intended to address drug shortages includes a #Medicaid provision that raises a lot of concerns. My new Georgetown CCF blog post explains:

Here's a new Georgetown CCF report on the importance of #Medicaid to children and families living in small towns and rural areas. It shows the particular risk that rural families face from the ongoing unwinding of the Medicaid continuous coverage protection.

ICYMI: In a blog post, I look at marketplace enrollment in a recent data release from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) on #Medicaid unwinding. The early data is not promising.

ICYMI: last month I wrote a Georgetown CCF blog on the latest Republican Study Committee (RSC) budget. It would impose draconian cuts to #Medicaid . Together with a proposal to cut marketplace subsidies, it would cut Medicaid & ACA spending by $3.84 trillion - or by 52.3% - over 10 years.

Public comments to a CMS proposed rule related to the #Medicaid Drug Rebate Program (MDRP) are due on July 25, 2023. Georgetown CCF has submitted highly supportive public comments to the proposed rule, focusing particularly on several sound provisions.

New Georgetown CCF blog post from Joan Alker and me about how the #Medicaid work reporting requirements in the House-passed McCarthy debt ceiling bill would still place low-income parents at serious risk of losing their health coverage even though they are supposed to qualify for an exemption.
