    Wow! Amazing thread from on my book . There are few things better than when a scholar whose work you value also finds value in your work. Also, b/c reaching a wider audience is important to me, I LOVED seeing a non-political scientist process the book.

    Just finished reading 's "Fragmented Democracy: Medicaid, Federalism, & Unequal Politics." It's phenomenal. I can't say enough good things. But I'm about to say a bunch of them (thread)

    I was featured on this short marketplace snippet about the current state of US health care. We'll see how the reality of our healthcare system aligns with what emerges in the SOTU

    I know you all have a lot of op-eds about electability to write, but we should be more attentive to this CMS move to convert part of Medicaid into block grants. It'd probably be the biggest retrenchment of the American welfare state since 1996.

    CMS released details today on their latest attempt to undermine . It's called the Health Adult Opportunity (HAO) Program. The euphemism filled "fact sheet" they posted is designed to obscure the purpose & consequences of HAO. Let me break it down.

    Informing coverage of this drama along w/ & . This quote points to the fact that b/c it is buried in administrative complexity, CMS's strategy COULD be effective, despite its risks. But let me add: only if folks don't respond, mobilize & organize.

    In addition to being mad or sad, do something (if you can).

    If you oppose Trump's new policy that will cut benefits to people who are eligible for Social Security disability benefits, make your voice heard. Anyone can can make a comment on the federal register, which becomes part of the official record. 6/

    Been overwhelmed this week thinking about all the people who stand to be hurt by the rules & programs being promulgated by this administration. But I don't have to stand by helplessly. We submitted a public comment. & Susan Giaimo led the way.

    Trump: “I’m not going to cut Social Security like every other Republican and I’m not going to cut Medicare or Medicaid.” But Trump's plan to increase the frequency of disability reviews is a de facto cut. Read our comment on the proposed rule 1/

    Despite the anodyne & euphemistic language CMS uses to describe the "Healthy Adult Opportunity" program this is about making healthcare harder to get for folks on the margins & asserting healthcare as a privilege, not a right. If you're against that, then you're against HAO. /END

    Don't be fooled by the pretense of "performance indicators" as a mechanism for accountability. What are the baseline expectations for these indicators? What will happen if indicators show people are being harmed? What about the voice and perspectives of actual beneficiaries?

    The narrative of deservingness & attempt to block grant tap into the same underlying agenda. This is abt eroding , controlling who has access, excluding as many economically & racially marginalized people as possible & insisting that healthcare is NOT a right.

    In addition to a false narrative of deservingness this program pushes another agenda as well, one with a long history: removing Medicaid's status as an entitlement, capping its funding & undermining its ability to help everyone who is eligible (i.e. block granting it).

    If CMS truly believed that this program was in the best interest of beneficiaries, why not apply it to everyone? Thank goodness they do not, of course. But the choice reflects a narrative that Verma's CMS has consistently pushed: only the most sympathetic are "deserving" of care

    Here is the glaring indicator that CMS knows full well that this "flexibility" is not in the best interest of Medicaid beneficiaries: they limit the program to the least sympathetic populations. They only want to do this to the folks they think don't "deserve" health care.

    Nearly every aspect of the "flexibility" that CMS so giddily touts is about states having the power to take away benefits, exclude beneficiaries and make the whole system/process harder for the people it is meant to help.

    "cost sharing" = beneficiaries pay "aligning benefits"= they get fewer things covered "programmatic adjustment" = administrative burdens that make benefits harder to get "applying conditions"= fewer people are eligible "wavering retroactive coverage"= less coverage

    Flexibility is mentioned 8 times in this short fact sheet. It sounds harmless enough, so what is the big deal? Well, look at what the flexibility will be used for. Most of these things represent additional burdens on Medicaid beneficiaries or reductions to the Medicaid program.

    Notice that the "opportunity" here is for states. The emphasis is on giving states "flexibility"--something they already have an immense amount of when it comes to . Beneficiaries are not explicitly mentioned until the end of the intro paragraph, barely an afterthought.

    Philly’s Mayor Kenney is up right now. He’s talking about the city’s priorities. There’s a lot going on in Philly. Struck—and pleased—that he’s mentioned race and poverty again and again
