Fourteen states would miss out on $8.4 billion in Medicaid dollars: study
June 3, 2013, 5:01 PM
By Russ Britt
Fourteen states would miss out on a collective $8.4 billion in federal subsidies and spend $1 billion more on uncompensated care without participation in Medicaid expansion programs under President Obama's health-care overhaul plan, a new study shows.
In a study published in Health Affairs magazine Monday, Rand Corp. says an additional 3.6 million people will be left uninsured in those states that have opted not to take part in the expansion.
Thirteen of the states aren't participating in Medicaid expansion and include: Alabama, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas and Wisconsin. The 14th included in the study, Iowa, is developing an alternative to the Medicaid expansion. All states are eligible to jump in and take part in the Medicaid expansion at a later date.
