Medicaid cuts threaten healthcare access for thousands in US

Over 3 million Michiganders will have to reapply for Medicaid coverage due to the end of automatic renewals during the pandemic. Those who no longer qualify for Medicaid or have not completed the necessary paperwork may lose their coverage. The state is working to inform beneficiaries of their renewal month and provide assistance to those who need to transition to other coverage options. However, there is concern that many eligible individuals may slip through the cracks and lose coverage.
