In the recent flood of actions being proposed and implemented by the new administration, one program’s future looks increasingly uncertain: Medicaid. Each state’s program looks different, resulting in 55 distinct versions of Medicaid across the US. Overall, these Medicaid programs provide free or low-cost health insurance to about 80 million people in the US – roughly one in five Americans. Want to learn more about this program, how it is funded, and who benefits? Join Dr. Sarah Petry, a demographer and health policy expert, as she brings clarity to Medicaid program complexity and demonstrates exactly why this program is an essential component of the US health care system. Join us on Tuesday, April 15th, from 6:00 to 7:00 PM at the Chapel Hill Public Library.
