About this listen

 We've talked a lot recently about possible cuts to Medicaid. One possible way de facto cuts could be implemented is work requirements. Mary-Beth Malcarney joins us to talk all about how such requirements would impact people who currently use Medicaid, family caregivers, and in fact, everyone in the US, including those using private insurance. Caregivers will understand that sometimes, while we may qualify for a formal program, doing the administrative legwork to receive it might be difficult to impossible. How does one prove they are a family caregiver if that is an exception, anyway?
