63% of CEOs identified inadequate Medicaid reimbursement as a concern

Statistic Info

This inadequate reimbursement affects both patients and providers. Low Medicaid reimbursements have caused many hospitals, especially in rural areas, to close due to financial strain. Studies have also found that low Medicaid reimbursements can lead to the underutilization of healthcare services for people on Medicaid, leading to poorer health outcomes and increased costs over time.
