As states prepare for Medicaid’s continuous enrollment requirement to end March 31, AHA today joined the Connecting to Coverage Coalition, a diverse group of organizations working to provide trusted information about the Medicaid redetermination process and minimize disruptions in coverage. 

“One of the most important things we can do as health care organizations is to protect and care for the most vulnerable in our communities,” said AHA President and CEO Rick Pollack. “This coalition unites us in a common goal to do that and join forces to ensure the Medicaid redetermination process does not devastate millions of American families and children by jeopardizing coverage they have come to rely on. Hospitals and health systems serve on the front lines caring for everyone who comes through our doors, and we remain deeply committed to making sure no one loses access to critical coverage and care.”
