Phasing Out Enhanced Federal Funding for Medicaid Expansion.

This bill proposes gradually reducing federal financial support for states that expanded Medicaid coverage to low-income adults. Starting in 2027, states will bear an increasing share of healthcare costs for this population, potentially leading to cuts in coverage for millions of Americans. The enhanced funding will be completely eliminated by 2035.
Key points
The enhanced federal funding rate (FMAP) for Medicaid expansion populations will begin phasing out in 2027 and end in 2035.
States that have not yet expanded Medicaid will lose the option to receive higher federal matching funds if they choose to expand in the future.
Increased costs for states could result in reduced access to healthcare coverage for low-income adults currently covered by the Medicaid expansion.
