Families and advocates are calling the reduction a threat to care access and urging state leaders to reverse the decision. The cut affects provider reimbursement rates across Medicaid services, with particular concern about impacts on disability and long-term services. Advocates are pressing the legislature and administration to identify alternative budget solutions before the reduction takes effect.
