Does the American public really understand the implications of the Bush's Medicaid reform policy eff 7/1/06??

Question

Eff 7/1/06 every person receiving any form of Medicaid will have to prove identity and citizenship before benefits can be approved. If you can't produce proof you are basically SOL. The policy DOES NOT affect 3 day emergency Medicaid available to undocumented persons living in the US. How did this piggyback through on the Federal Budget Deficit Act without detection, or does the general population not care??!!

This is typical of an administration that flies under the radar of a smoke screen. Why will undocumented aliens continue to receive 3 day emergency Medicaid, when the child of a dysfunctional, irresponsible US citizen (who can't/won't provide documentation) won't be able to get Medicaid. What is the burden on the system going to be then? Why do I sound bitter? Because I've worked in case mgmt for DPSS/DHS for 25+ years and can see where this is all going.

Answer 1

I care. I love it, no Social Security to illegal aliens. Finally a law to rescue my tax dollars.

Answer 2

Another typical Bush piece of legislation. I am not a citizen and I get universal medicare for $54 dollars a month never have to pay hospital bills doctor bills nothing.

Answer 3

Many, many elderly black people were born during the time of segregation, their mothers were not allowed to give birth in a hospital nor receive a birth certificate for their child. This is one flaw...

Answer 4

Just read about this...and have to renew the Medicaid insurance for a short time. And now I understand why this time they want to see my birth certificate...

Answer 5

Did you not see Kanye West on TV? GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE...or anyone else but his rich family and rich friends (like the Saudi rich-as-**** Arabians that provide the US with two things: oil and terrorists like the guys from 9/11)

Answer 6

Since when has our opinion affected what Bush does?

Answer 7

YOU MUST LOVE THE U.S.A. CONSTANTLY STICKING IT TO THE GENERATIONAL TAXPAYERS.
AMAZING! IT SHOULD MAKE YOU WONDER ABOUT THE WAR ON DRUGS (trillion dollar industry).
WHO'S ON CRACK? THE LAW HAS BEEN WACKY FOR LONG TIME, THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE LAW THEMSELVES.

Answer 8

if this is true, there is no problem, since medicaid is for citiznes and must have to be who they say they are.
