Medicaid and the State of State Budgets, with Richard Auxier

We take a deep dive on all things Medicaid, starting with its outsized impact on state budgets. Richard Auxier from the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center walks us through the state-federal Medicaid funding partnership, why "redetermination" matters, the Medicaid policy trade-offs states will face in the near future, and why FMAP rates should be part of everyone's dinner conversation, among many other topics. In Ripped from the Headlines we look at how Medicaid redetermination might affect children.
