Medicaid spend-downs are one of the parts of US medicine that are so absurd & cruel they are hard to explain to people outside the field. I have even struggled to convince people this is real because there's so little published on it. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

@DavidCGrabowski @CitizenCohn I agree it’s a great unmet need, would be popular with constituents across the political spectrum, and would be transformational for our aging 🇺🇸 population. Would this not bankrupt Medicare though? (P.S. A serious question, not being sassy here)

Expanding Medicare to cover the cost of long-term care at home would be a HUGE development. Great quote: “There isn’t a lot in the world of health policy that does this well with such a broad swath of the electorate.” @CitizenCohn huffpost.com/entry/kamala-h…

More research is needed to understand why I-SNPs enter certain markets and why dual-eligible long-stay nursing home residents choose to enroll in them; to assess I-SNP enrollment barriers; and to compare hospital admission rates & quality outcomes by I-SNP enrollment status. END/
