The Republican-controlled Senate continues on its drive to repeal Obamacare and replace it with new legislation which may threaten Medicaid funding to the Adults with Autism population, even after Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was forced to delay the Senate vote for a week and a half to attempt to sway and obtain more positive votes.
Should the bill eventually pass, and Adults with Autism see their Medicaid funding drop, it would be up to the Governors of the States to seek replacement funding through other channels in order to attempt to maintain the current much-needed funding levels previously put in place through Obamacare.
Post 21 Club will continue to monitor changes to the status of Federal Medicaid funding as it impacts the Adults with Autism population.
