As reported out of the House E&C Committee, the reconciliation bill would cut the 90% #Medicaid expansion matching rate to 80% for any expansion state that uses its own funding to provide coverage to undocumented immigrants. 14 states + DC do so for kids and smaller number cover others (3/X)
Under the "ICHIA" option enacted in 2009, states can provide #Medicaid and CHIP coverage to certain legal immigrant children and pregnant women. Most states have taken up this option - 38 states for kids and 32 states for pregnant women (2/X): www.kff.org/report-secti...
Thread. 33 of 40 #Medicaid expansion states (+DC) will now face a 10 point cut in their expansion match rate under House GOP reconciliation bill. Latest language penalizes not only states using own funds to cover undocumented kids but also states covering legal immigrant kids/pregnant women (1/x)

The so-called “moderate” GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion.
Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates.
What’s “moderate” about that?
It's been so long, I barely remember how to run #PelotonMed!

PAS2025 posters!!!! Some random ones I enjoyed.
Decent agreement with manual and QR code attendance at resident conference.
Important not to overtest. There is no test for confirming pain.
Families don’t hear what they say, they are looking at our reaction. When we order more tests, we are sending the message that families should worry.
Diagnosis needs a good history & physical exam. Not everyone needs testing.
Top articles in MedEd session.
A favorite session every year
Irony:
Scrolling through X, seeing post after post of anti-vaccine rhetoric.
On the same day that my pediatric practice forms its first-ever Measles Task Force.
Our children and grandchildren will never understand how we allowed this to happen.

Tell us again that this isn't our lane. 93,022 firearm injury ED visits from 2018–2023 in just 9 states + DC. That’s 1 every 30 minutes. Nighttime, weekends, and holidays saw the most.

These weekly emails about #NIH funding opportunities are now downright depressing.

For herd immunity against measles, 92-95% of the population must be vaccinated.
As a live vaccine MMR can’t be given to pts who are immune suppressed (including pts receiving chemo/radiation or immunosuppression)
And it’s not effective in newborns.
So if you CAN get it, we REALLY need you to.
Still biking, walking, and yoging, but miss you all!
That is amazing form for you both!
What are all of the #PelotonMed people up to? It's been a minute! I don't think we have enough traction yet for an official account

Thank you @annieandrewsmd.bsky.social for your tireless advocacy, especially in these times!
If Republicans ever remember how to govern and actually pass this budget that guts Medicaid- it’s bad news for all of us. TV
If you have to take a daily pill to reduce your risk of heart disease, wouldn't it be easier get your meds at the pharmacy 4 days/yr instead of 12?
We made a simple tweak in the default order that made things easier for patients and reduced disparities... 🧵👇#nudge

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq
