People from all walks of life benefit from Medicaid. Like the mother and her newborn receiving crucial neonatal care. And the veteran getting the specialty health care they need after serving our country. And your neighbor in D.C. who needs life-changing health care coverage for their loved ones. When life takes a left turn, Medicaid steps in to ensure access to quality care for those who need it.
Medicaid Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) payments make it possible for hospitals to provide that care while still receiving the crucial funding they need to stay open.
But this spring, lawmakers are considering funding cuts to the Medicaid program that would roll back those payments.
So we need your help. Will you pledge to defend care for vulnerable Americans?
Everyone deserves access to high quality, affordable health care. Medicaid DSH payments make it possible for hospitals to provide that care. Without that compensation, hospitals in rural communities, for instance, will fall under even greater strain.
So we all need to join this fight. Add your name to say you'll defend Medicaid DSH payments from harmful reductions.
Thank you,
Coalition to Protect America's Health Care
