The federal Medicaid agency has approved an 1115 waiver that will enable Kentucky to require many Medicaid beneficiaries to work in order to receive coverage.  The approval also imposes premiums on very low income people and introduces other eligibility requirements that previous Administrations have refused. Advocates quickly sued, arguing that the approval violates federal law. 

By attending this webinar, you will:

• Learn about the legal and policy background on 1115 waivers
• Receive an overview of the Kentucky waiver
• Hear details about the lawsuit challenging the waiver

Speakers:

• Sarah Somers, Managing Attorney, the Network for Public Health Law - Southeastern Region Office and the National Health Law Program

• Jane Perkins, Legal Director and Senior Attorney, the Network for Public Health Law - Southeastern Region Office and the National Health Law Program
