In Arkansas, 4,300 fewer people have health insurance through the state’s Medicaid program this week.  Another 5,000 could face a similar fate next month. Why? They failed to meet the state’s Medicaid work requirements.

Patients covered by Medicaid in Kentucky and Indiana could soon find themselves in a difficult position. According to new rules, recipients must complete 80 hours of “community engagement” or risk losing their health coverage.
