Extended Pregnancy Medicaid During COVID‐19 and Enrollment and Health Care Use in the Postpartum Year
Erica L. Eliason et al.
What the paper says
Continuous Medicaid coverage during the FFCRA was associated with longer postpartum enrollment and increases in some health care utilization. However, no increases in Medicaid-paid outpatient care or care for pregnancy-related conditions were found, which may have been due to enrollees' limited awareness of their continued eligibility. Improved communication around extended postpartum Medicaid coverage may improve the translation of coverage into health care access.
