Georgetown CCF Launches Study on Medicaid Work Requirement Impacts
Georgetown McCourt's Center for Children and Families (CCF) is launching a one-year research study tracking how new Medicaid work reporting requirements and six-month renewal mandates under H.R. 1 affect enrollees in real time. The study responds to the expected rollout of shifting rules and new administrative burdens tied to the federal law. Researchers aim to document real-world effects on beneficiaries as states implement these changes. Findings could inform policymakers and advocates about coverage losses or administrative barriers as implementation proceeds.
Why it mattersStates, advocates, and health plans will gain early, independent evidence on how work requirements and shortened renewal cycles affect enrollment and retention, informing implementation and potential course corrections.
