Medicaid Work or Community Engagement Requirements Could Harm People with Cancer and Cancer Survivors
ACS CAN strongly opposes any attempt by the federal government or states to condition Medicaid coverage on work or community engagement.
ACS CAN submitted comments in July 2023 to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) expressing grave concerns about Arkansas' request to create work or engagement requirements in Medicaid.
Our concerns include that the proposed program will interrupt enrollees' continuity of care, deter enrollment in Medicaid, and that the proposal lacks sufficient detail for CMS to approve.
