7.3 million people are uninsured but eligible for Medicaid. More outreach and help navigating the application process could no doubt reduce that number. kff.org/health-reform/issue-…

Translation: SPA in the Medicaid context is a state plan amendment. Easier to get quickly and no budget neutrality agreement. So it’s better! Not as good as a spa though 😉

A reminder that Medicaid/CHIP are open for enrollment all year round. New funds coming for outreach and enrollment hopefully on 1/28.

Thanks to @goldsteinamy for her in depth reporting on Medicaid. Incredibly grateful for the opportunity to do such important work and be a part of a team that makes a meaningful difference in the lives of Nevadans.
In Nevada, swelling Medicaid rolls are colliding into the state's dwindling ability to pay for the program. A portrait of the social safety net in the coronavirus pandemic. And the leading edge of what's coming for the country? wapo.st/32sxs9P
