- The Health Equity & Access under the Law (HEAL) for Immigrant Families Act of 2023 removes political interference and restores coverage so immigrants in the United States (U.S.) can participate in the health insurance programs for which they would be eligible but for their immigration status or length of stay. This bill will allow immigrants and their families to receive the health coverage…July 2023Medicaid, Medicare

- For decades, Medicaid has provided virtually no-cost coverage to millions of Americans priced out of the private insurance market.

- Medicaid has a long history of serving pregnant women, but many women are not eligible for Medicaid before pregnancy or after sixty days postpartum.

- The National Quality Forum and several collaborators launched the National Quality Task Force in late 2018 to analyze the progress of the modern quality movement today and recommend a path forward. Despite impressive gains, notable shortcomings persist in normalizing consistent, high-value, person-centered care.

- States developing accountable health models often look to Oregon for inspiration. Oregon established its Coordinated Care Organizations (CCOs) in 2012, pursuant to a Medicaid Section 1115 demonstration waiver. CCOs are local networks of all types of health care providers – including physical, behavioral, and oral health providers – that the state pays a global capitated rate to provide…March 2019Medicaid
