Скачать или смотреть Uncovering the Truth About Medicaid Expansion with Dr. John Mansell - Episode 067

Welcome back to another episode of Eye on The Issues! We recorded this interview with Dr. John Mansell during the 2024 Wyoming legislative session when it was still to be determined if this year's session would see yet another attempt to expand Medicaid in our state. For the first time in several years, no actual attempts were made. However, very recently, the Joint Health, Labor, and Social Services committee met, and discussions of a proposed new state health care advisory group have many fearing it would push Medicaid expansion and increased government regulations, as the new group would consist mainly of industry advocates. We wanted to share this interview with Dr. Mansell as a reminder of the financial and access to care problems stemming from expansion.

Dr. Mansell delves into the financial and healthcare ramifications of Medicaid expansion, offering insights into the underlying issues that providers and patients face. From the inadequacies of Medicaid coverage to the impact on hospital viability, every aspect is examined with candor and expertise. Discover the truth behind Medicaid expansion proposals, the pitfalls of relying on outdated data, and the potential solutions for improving healthcare access without compromising fiscal stability. With firsthand experiences as a physician and hospital board member, Dr. Mansell provides invaluable perspectives on Wyoming's current healthcare situation.
