1. Medicaid y la Cobertura de Nacimientos en EE. UU.
Medicaid es el principal pagador de servicios de maternidad en el país, cubriendo aproximadamente 4 de cada 10 nacimientos a nivel nacional, con tasas aún más altas en estados conservadores y rurales. Los recortes propuestos amenazan directamente la atención prenatal y el parto seguro para millones de familias.
- Medicaid covers 41 of the births in the united states. Destroying medicaid means children and families will needlessly suffer.
- Did you know that medicaid covers 4 in 10 u.s. Births? thats right, nearly half of all babies born in this country rely on medicaid for their first few years of life.
- Medicaid covers 42 of all births in the u.s. Cut it, and you cut birth care for nearly half of american babies.
- Medicaid covers half of all births in some states like louisiana and mississippi both with extreme abortion bans.
2. La Contradicción "Pro-Vida" y la Asistencia Post-Nacimiento.
La crítica central es la incoherencia de forzar el parto mediante la prohibición del aborto mientras se eliminan los programas de apoyo esenciales como Medicaid, SNAP y WIC. Los críticos argumentan que esto demuestra que el movimiento es "pro-nacimiento" y no "pro-vida", ya que abandona a las madres y a los niños una vez que nacen.
- If the gop is pro-life, how can they support taking away medicaid funding? we will see more dead babies and mothers.
- You cant call yourself pro-life while ripping healthcare away from kids, seniors, and working families. This is cruelty, plain and simple.
- Abortion bans to force women to have babies then take away medicaid and food assistance to have and feed the baby.
- They are forcing people to have babies, eliminating subsidized childcare and preparation for kindergarten to help take care of these babies, while making the same people work to get medicaid.
3. Impacto Crítico en Niños y Recién Nacidos Prematuros (NICU).
Los recortes de Medicaid ponen en peligro la vida de los niños más vulnerables, incluidos aquellos con discapacidades y los bebés prematuros que requieren cuidados intensivos neonatales (NICU). Los costos de la NICU son frecuentemente millonarios, y Medicaid es la única cobertura viable para muchas familias, independientemente de su nivel de ingresos inicial.
- Cutting medicaid cuts coverage for nicu babies- and they havent even gotten a chance to go outside in the sunlight yet.
- My firstborn son was born extremely premature at 24 weeks 5 days.he spent nearly 6 months in the hospital.the bill was over 1 million. Medicaid paid for anything my health insurance did not.
- Nicu babies regardless of paretntal income staying over 30 days receive medicaid. They are considered disabled and institutionalized by the ssa.
- A majority of children rely on medicaid. A majority. Its not just the disabled or unemployed who are going to lose their healthcare its kids too.
4. Consecuencias de los Recortes: Mortalidad y Crisis de Salud Materna.
La reducción de la financiación de Medicaid se asocia directamente con peores resultados de salud, especialmente en la crisis de mortalidad materna de EE. UU. Los recortes amenazan con el cierre de hospitales rurales y la pérdida de acceso a la atención prenatal, lo que afectará desproporcionadamente a las mujeres de color.
- Medicaid expansion is linked to lower maternal and infant mortality rates. The data is clear. Lawmakers just dont care.
- The infant mortality rate for black babies is more than two times higher than the rate for white babies. Cutting medicaid, which covers 65 of births to black pregnant people, is unconscionable.
- Maternal mortality rates in states that refused to expand medicaid health care coverage were 35 higher than in states that extended medicaid to more low-income people families.
- About 40 of births in this country are paid for by medicaid. Once their bill goes through, its gonna get a lot worse for the birth rate and womens mortality.not to mention all those rural hospitals that are gonna close.
