What Medicaid population will lose benefits under this new bill?

[Anonymous]

Nursing home residents?
Disabled adults?
Developmentally Disabled adults?
Children?
Indigent people?
Or all of the above?
What is the criteria?

All of the above. They want disabled people to work. If they can't work, they get kicked off until they can jump through a bunch of new hoops and do more paperwork.

The point is to disqualify everyone from Medicaid who needs Medicaid.

Catch-22.

Eugenics is the point.

People who are caregivers for family - moms and those who care for family members

If they require 80 hrs a month, it will make their income too high to qualify

Great article demonstrating that Medicaid “work requirements” are actually just bureaucratic red tape designed to trip people up so they can be kicked out of the program:

The Medicaid work requirement won't start until 2029, so who cares?

There are more important parts of the disastrous bill to focus on other than something that won't go into play until Trump is gone and the next Admin is in office.

This is going to cure so many disabilities, it will be a modern day miracle.

Hopefully some of my fraudster relatives.

How can you be too disabled to work but are fully capable of hiking a few miles to sit in your tree stand for hours hunting deer? How are you too disabled to work due to anxiety but had zero issues attending Taylor Swift's Eras Tour 3 times? Too disabled to work, but can post gym bro content for their 11 followers.

Those are all the people who should be kicked off. Not elderly granny and grandpa. Not the kids with medical issues.

How about stop giving invaders benefits you thought you could afford?

It's impossible to give a straight answer with this administration. The current Social Security fiasco provides a good example. They made it impossible to file claims over the phone by installing an AI that never transfers elderly retirees to an agent and just randomly recites unrelated summaries of social security law. When they try to go in-person, they have to drive to an open office then wait 4 hours. Anyone not willing to navigate that will have their claim denied. So I'm sure Medicaid is going to make some pretty creative AI based "hoops" to jump through then claim the huge numbers of people who don't get benefits are "fraudsters" who had their claims denied.

Johnson made a deal with the conservatives to move it up to 2026 in exchange for them allowing it out of committee.

This does nothing to prevent that. They are just taking it away. Your very rare case has no bearing here, but have you tried reporting them for fraud?

You knew that this fraud was being committed and you did nothing, so instead you prefer that they take it away from children and sick people?

You are as guilty as they are.

If you feel this strongly about your "fraudster relatives," is there some tip line you can call to report them?
