Excerpt from "Federal Medicaid "Unwinding" Could Cause Community Health Centers to Lose Care Capacity For as Many as 2.1 Million Patients Nationwide."......
"A new report from the Geiger Gibson / RCHN Community Health Foundation Research Collaborative examining the financial and patient care impact of unwinding Medicaid’s continuous enrollment policy finds that up to 2.5 million community health center (CHC) patients could lose their Medicaid coverage once continuous enrollment ceases. This could, in turn, trigger a loss of $1.5 billion to $2.5 billion in patient revenue, which amounts to between 4% and 7% of national total health center revenue." Ku and and researchers.
