Hundreds of thousands of Ohioans will be subject to new Medicaid work requirements starting Jan. 1, 2027.
What does that mean for the people who need coverage and what happens when a disability precludes work?
On Cincinnati Edition, we discuss the changes ahead, including who’s eligible for exemptions and what it will take for people to prove they’re working.
Guests:
- Phil Lichtenstein, retired pediatrician and chair, Ohio Chapter of Physicians for National Health Program
- Tara Britton, director of public policy, The Center for Community Solutions
- Regina Campbell, managing attorney for the Income, Work & Health practice group, Legal Aid Society of Greater Cincinnati
