The Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts Foundation released a chart pack that describes the potential threats to subsidized health insurance coverage and financing in Massachusetts under the new federal administration.
The goals of this chart pack are to:
- Provide a high-level overview of MassHealth, the Health Connector, and publicly subsidized health insurance programs in Massachusetts that could be impacted by federal policy changes.
- Describe the potential changes in federal financing and policy related to Medicaid and subsidized Affordable Care Act Marketplace coverage programs that are likely being considered by the new federal administration.
- Provide estimates of the potential impacts of these changes (in terms of dollars or lives) for MassHealth and Massachusetts ConnectorCare programs.
- Identify, to the extent possible, the timing, political hurdles, and implementation vehicles for these potential changes.
