How to use medicaid in a sentence?
Raul Juarez/Congresswoman-Elect Dlia Ramirez:
I am the daughter of a woman who at 61 has given so much to this country and is a minimum-wage worker that can’t afford health care, so she’s on Medicaid, and diabetic, i am the daughter of a man who spent 30 years working in an industrial bakery, a union busting company, and the day he retired, he got a frozen pie. He didn’t get a retirement pension and he struggled with Medicare supplemental, covering the cost.
Think back to 2010 when they said that under Obamacare you would have 23 million Americans insured. It is actually 12 million this year, they also made a forecasting error so they dramatically underestimated the cost of Medicaid. So we need to keep these things in mind as we are talking about this scoring as well.
I really can't explain why so many people are confident about their ability to pay for long-term care, it might be that they think - wrongly - that Medicare is going to cover it, or maybe they'll just spend down to indigent levels and go on Medicaid. But there's no way this is a justifiable sense of optimism.
The one caveat in this is that every state dollar spent on able-bodied adults in a Medicaid program is one less dollar that can be spent on other programs. This is essentially eating up tons of funds at the state level.
I'm running for Congress full time and I can't afford private health insurance and I don't even qualify for Medicaid in Georgia, so, I don't feel safe knocking on doors Nabilah Islam.
