NAPH conducted the analysis as part of its national advocacy effort to raise awareness about the impact of proposed Medicaid cuts being considered by the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction. The proposed cuts could put the long-term financial stability of public healthcare systems at risk, according to the news release.
