Our tracker of net child Medicaid enrollment loss will soon hit 5 million. We’ve been doing focus groups with parents and those whose kids have been uninsured talk about the inability to access key medications for their kids such as for asthma and behavioral health needs.

Please read and share this great article. We all need to keep talking about this for the sake of our nation’s children!

via @NYTimes. Another brilliant story by ⁦Noah Weiland⁩ illustrating the human consequences of child Medicaid loss.
