20: NUMBER OF STATES THAT MADE HEALTH CUTS IN 2012 BUDGETS

 A new Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP) report finds that at least “20 states have made deep, identifiable cuts in health care that will reduce access to care for low-income children, seniors, families and people with disabilities.” According to the report, “Arizona has frozen enrollment in part of its Medicaid program, so that an estimated 100,000 low-income people who previously would have qualified will not be able to enter the program, and another 150,000 will face more stringent rules for retaining eligibility. Washington has frozen enrollment for a state-run health plan serving 60,000 low-income residents, which is expected to reduce the number of participants by 3,000 each year.”
