The Big Worry. The Big Unwind: Medicaid Disenrollment Keeps Rolling Along

Ronald Hirsch, MD | David Glaser, Esq. | Kyla Wonder | Cate Brantley, JD | Tony DiLuca | John Zelem, MD Season 13 Episode 551

At least 1.3 million Medicaid enrollees have been disenrolled as of June 20, according to the Kaiser Family Foudation (KFF) “Unwinding Tracker.” This estimate could be an under-count, KFF admits, due to state recordkeeping details. Yet the major issue looms on the horizon: what will happen to those who have lost their Medicaid benefits? Could a tsuansmi of patients without health insurance soon appear at your hospital?

During the next live edition of Monitor Mondays, Tony DiLuca, principal at Physician and Tactical Healthcare Services, LLC (PATHS) and a member of the Pennsylvania Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Fee-for-Service Subcommittee, will report on the unwinding process of the enrollment, along with current updates and best practices.
