Montana's "unwinding" is likely to similarly affect children who are Medicaid eligible, but have not gotten the notice to reapply or not correctly filled out paperwork.
Deborah Greenhouse @greenhousemd May 17, 2023
Florida data from the first month of #MedicaidUnwinding- Devastating.
54% of those evaluated were terminated. Many are children.
82% of those were STILL ELIGIBLE and terminated for procedural reasons.
@scmedicaid, PLEASE do better than this for our kids.

"The child tax credit also strengthens families and increases self-sufficiency, helping to increase educational attainment, reduce child welfare involvement, and promote higher wages for parents."

Long term benefits for kids ✅️
