You will note in the OP that they handled over the Medicaid data for specific states that were giving Medicaid to illegals through their state programs.


This is still federal money, at least partially. Your "clarification" proves the opposite of what you intend.

Trump is making Newsome go on TV and say illegals should get Medicare. This hurts Gavin’s Presidential run.

I’ve been told they don’t receive benefits…


Or get drivers licenses, or vote.


Because, they are undocumented. And it’s illegal.



Lol

I pointed out, with the assistance of Grok, that illegals don’t receive federal benefits in general.



This is incorrect. One woman was just arrested doing it. It’s called FRAUD.

Plus there are federal programs for migrants and refugees.

The person you replied to was correct in his statement in that, in general, illegal immigrants are not eligible for SNAP, Medicaid or TANF. The issue is that while an illegal isn't eligible for SNAP or TANF any children or otherwise eligible immigrants in the household are and the illegal doesn't count as a household member for benefit amount but their income is prorated based on household size. So there could be a net benefit in that a benefit household of the same size with the same income receives equal to, or less than, the same size one with an illegal.

As for Medicaid illegals are eligible for what is called "emergency, time-limited Medicaid". Legally that is limited to "placing the patient's health in serious jeopardy, serious impairment to bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ" but in practice it's anything a doctor says is an emergency condition.

ETA: Under Expanded Medicaid states also have the option to allow immigrants, who can't verify qualified immigrant status up to 90 days to provide verification of their status but will receive Medicaid in that meantime, with no limits on how often they can receive that 90 days of eligibility.

Also under Covid PHE rules (2020-2024) there was no real check on immigration status. If you said you were a qualified immigrant (legal permanent resident for 5 years or a refugee or an asylee/parolee with at least 1 year of approved residence or a cuban/haitian) you got Medicaid. COVID rules were a mess.

Medicaid is jointly funded by the federal government and individual states. The federal government provides a percentage of the funding, known as the Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (FMAP), which varies by state and is generally higher for states with lower per capita income. States are responsible for the remaining costs and administering the program within federal guidelines, according to Medicaid.gov.
.
In essence, Medicaid is a partnership between the federal and state governments, with the federal government providing significant financial support while the states manage the program on the ground.

I'm fine with this. Illegals don't deserve Medicaid. Get the frick out

At this point who TF knows who medicaid is supposed to be for?!? So sad.

Even legal immigrants shouldn't be. Refugees, H1Bs, nor the family that tagged alonged. Immigrants are supposed to be able to support themselves. But of course the whole problem won't get fixed.

Trump needs to get on tv and tell all of the Medicaid recipients he’s doing this to keep illegals from stealing their benefits.

using only state taxpayer dollars

So when a State gets too far into the red and lobbies for a bailout, are they still obligated to pay off the debt accumulated by illegals healthcare or is the national collective of taxpayers going to eat it?


So if the state is going to pay for it.......why would they need to enroll in the "federal" medicaid system?????

Or is it like Cali who ripped off the federal government by fraudulently overbilling by 19 billion dollars over three years and then giving the care under calpar??????
