| A | | Resolution Urging the Full Use of Federal Grants to Improve the Wisconsin Health Care System | Resolution | Resolution Urging the Full Use of Federal Grants to Improve the Wisconsin Health Care System (SB38 and AB53)
WHEREAS, the federal Affordable Care Act encourages innovation in states provided the goal is to ensure a greater level of health coverage. The decision to turn down federal grants for Wisconsin, however, will not improve health care coverage; it actually makes it harder for people to qualify for Badger Care. An estimated 88,000 adults who currently qualify for the program will be dropped, including thousands from Racine County. Leaving up to $1.3 billion of Medicaid grants on the table by 2017 will improve neither the economy nor our health care system. Some of these federal funds will flow through insurance exchanges rather than Medicaid, but much will be lost; and
WHEREAS, in 2014 thousands of Medicaid recipients will be placed in private health insurance exchanges and required to pay premiums. The transition from Medicaid to private insurance and the premium cost could result in the loss of health care due to confusion and inability to pay; and
