Barbara MonacoEmergency Medicaid for undocumented persons accounts for less than 1% of the Medicaid budget. Hospitals are required by a Reagan era law, EMTALA, to provide emergency care to all, no matter their legal or financial status.
Republicans claim baselessly that these expenses are straining the Medicaid system.

Beth PAt this point, I assume #EMTALA is on the chopping block in its entirety, since that's the only actual way undocumented ppl have coverage under #Medicaid. And if you think this stops with immigrants you're stupid, nuts or some combination of the two. Also, needless to say, fuck. https://apnews.com/article/immigration-medicaid-trump-ice-ab9c2267ce596089410387bfcb40eeb7
Trump administration hands over nation's Medicaid enrollee data to ICE
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials will gain access to personally identifiable information for all of the nation’s 79 million Medicaid enrollees. That's according to an agreement obtained by The Associated Press. ICE officials plan to track immigrants who may not be living legally in the United States. The agreement was signed Monday between officials at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the Department of Homeland Security. Direct access will be given to the addresses, Social Security numbers, birth dates as well as the ethnicity and race of all Medicaid enrollees.

DrBob, 🧠 MechanicCrazy, RFK didn’t know what Medicare Part A and Part B covered and had no idea what EMTALA was!
May be OK for someone not involved in health care but not someone who would be heading Health and Human Services for our country!
Such basic information (so ignorant!)…ugh

Nonilex#RFKJr didn’t answer the question, saying he thinks he only has authority over the budgetary provisions of #EMTALA.
“I don’t know. I mean the answer that is, I don’t know,” Kennedy finally responded.
This has been a major debate in #health #policy, reaching #SCOTUS last year. (The court mostly punted on the case.) The Biden admin argued that federal #law preempts state law for emergency #abortions.
#HHS can influence whether #hospitals provide #abortion in emergency situations. The Biden admin issued guidance saying that #EMTALA’s requirements that hospitals provide emergency medical care also mean hospitals should provide abortion in cases where a woman’s health or life were at risk. Sen Cortez Masto asked #RFKJr if he believes that EMTALA protects a woman’s right to have an emergency abortion if her #health is threatened, in the case of an incomplete miscarriage, for example.
