In a paper published last week in JAMA Network Open, Chris Frenier & I use APCD data to investigate coverage transitions after loss of Medicaid in Minnesota.

We find that half of enrollees exiting in 2018 or early 2019 had no observable coverage 6 months later, and a large share (including over 50% of kids) returned to Medicaid within a year.

This suggests that many enrollees were still eligible for Medicaid at termination or had very short-term changes in eligibility.
