There are significant federal cuts to Medicaid spending ahead, along with a drop in the provider tax rate that states rely on to fund their Medicaid programs—from 6% down to 3.5%. This means hospitals will have fewer resources to pay staff, and patients will face reduced access to care. #hospitals #medicaid #healthcarelayoffs

people without health care dont get preventive care, so only the sickest folks end up going to the er. by the time they get help, their illness is ussually alot worse. not many people really get how the provider tax works or how much it messes with hospitals and state budjets.
