Donna Gaffney and Teri Mills: Trump's plans for Medicaid will harm 3.1 million Pennsylvanians

The article by Donna Gaffney and Teri Mills, published on MSN, discusses the potential negative impacts of former President Donald Trump's proposed changes to Medicaid. They argue that Trump's plan to convert Medicaid into a block grant or per capita cap system would drastically reduce federal funding, leading to significant cuts in healthcare services for millions of Americans, particularly affecting the 3.1 million Pennsylvanians who rely on Medicaid. This shift would limit the program's ability to respond to increased healthcare needs or public health emergencies, potentially resulting in reduced coverage, increased costs for beneficiaries, and diminished access to essential health services. The authors highlight that such changes would disproportionately harm vulnerable populations, including children, seniors, and people with disabilities, exacerbating health disparities and economic insecurity.
