Grassroots Update: Urge Lawmakers to Fund Medicaid
Medicaid funds for both SNF and AL hang in the balance this legislative session, and your voice can tip the scales. SNF providers face a pressing threat in legislation that would delay a rate rebase until FY28 – meaning rates would be based on 2022 costs until then. We must ensure every legislator understands how this proposal would harm their constituents’ access to quality care. Meanwhile, AL providers’ rates continue to lag far behind the cost of care – and with a one-time funding lifeline expiring for high Medicaid census buildings, legislators must recognize the urgent need for rates to cover essential labor and operations expenses. Please message your legislators today.
