    I’m aware. That doesn’t mean you actually get healthcare though. Most places won’t take it. Those that do either have long waiting lists or won’t actually give decent treatment. It’s rare if not impossible to find a decent provider that takes Medicaid in my area, even just for primary care.

      I have it in NY. Every provider I’ve needed accepts it. There’s no waiting list. What state are you in that doesn’t accept it?

        When I was living in VA it was fucking hell to find someone to accept Medicaid.

          Was that before the Medicare for All act in 2023? It’s very different now.

            Before. I moved back to MD before '23, and things have always been pretty accomodating here.

          The blue states have the majority of immigrants.
