Medicaid

Many families in Ohio struggle to find affordable child care. But for families who have children with severe medical needs, childcare centers are not an option at all.

Many of Ohio's rural hospitals are barely breaking even. Now, new Medicaid changes could mean a major loss of income.

A bill in Congress could cut Medicaid substantially, and advocates for low-income Ohioans says the state needs to be able to respond.

800,000 Ohioans are at risk of losing coverage if Congress passes a proposed cut to Medicaid.

The change affects Ohioans who use the computer to access food stamps, Medicaid and childcare subsidies.

The end of a pandemic public health provision has meant a decrease in Medicaid coverage across the state.

Medicaid recipients make up more than half of Ohio community health centers’ patients. As coverage unwinds, advocates worry about the impact to centers’ bottom lines.

The nursing homes say they need $600 million of money allocated for COVID costs plus some ongoing funding changes to make ends meet.

They fear the new process to determine eligibility will make it hard for poor Ohioans to maintain coverage.

The Buckeye Institute says Medicaid recipients will lose the opportunity to make money and get needed job skills without the requirement.
