| Jason,
Everyone deserves access to quality and affordable healthcare, and Medicaid serves as a lifeline for millions of Floridians in need of essential healthcare services.
But did you know that under our current system, Florida pays a significant portion of Medicaid costs, even though the federal government could cover much more? Let's break down the numbers:
Currently, federal Medicaid covers about 62% of Medicaid costs in Florida. That means that for every dollar spent on Medicaid in Florida, federal Medicaid pays roughly 62 cents while we pay 38 cents.
After expansion, federal Medicaid would cover 90% of Medicaid costs in Florida. That means that federal Medicaid would pay roughly 90 cents for every dollar spent on Medicaid in Florida, lowering our cost to just 10 cents! |
| Not only would we be able to expand Medicaid access to over 1.4 million Floridians and save taxpayers $200 million annually, but we would bring our tax dollars back to Florida so we can invest that money back into our communities.
It's time to put Medicaid expansion on the ballot in 2026 and let the voters decide whether to expand Medicaid in Florida! Will you join our team by chipping in $5 today? |
| Thank you,
Florida Decides Healthcare |
