Oregon’s largest Medicaid provider on how Trump's megabill will affect health coverage in the state

from OPB Audio · host Oregon Public Broadcasting

Last week, congressional Republicans passed a domestic policy bill that makes sweeping changes to safety net programs like Medicaid. An analysis of an earlier version of the bill found that Oregon would be disproportionately hit by Medicaid cuts, with more people likely to lose coverage and end up uninsured. We hear from Eric Hunter, President and CEO of the state's largest Medicaid provider, CareOregon, about how the bill affects people on the Oregon Health Plan.
