Grateful to Rudowitz, Robin and KFF colleagues for their in-depth, more than year-long, analysis of the Herculean work of Medicaid unwinding. We all acknowledge that continuing to improve continuity of coverage for eligible folks is a very high priority. We are also attuned to the complexity of engaging with folks and making systems work for people. Medicaid directors and their teams remain hard at work as we enter the next phase of this process, which will focus on partnering with CMS to document compliance. Several key points from this helpful paper: * over 54 million people have had their Medicaid coverage successfully renewed * over the course of the unwinding period, the share of people whose coverage was renewed increased while the share who were disenrolled dropped * among those who retained coverage, the share of people renewed on an ex parte basis increased from 51% in Month 1 to 70% in Month 12 National Association of Medicaid Directors
See our analysis of changes in renewal outcomes during unwinding - share of renewals increased and among those renewed those renewed through an automated or ex parte process increased. https://lnkd.in/eV-Ae36Q
