Georgia Excludes HIV from Medically Frail Exemptions in Medicaid Work Requirement Proposal

Georgia's proposed Medicaid work requirement does not include HIV on its list of conditions qualifying beneficiaries as medically frail, meaning low-income Georgians living with HIV would need to meet work requirements to maintain coverage. The proposal is still under consideration by state officials. Advocates are questioning the exclusion, which could affect eligibility for vulnerable populations. The decision stands in contrast to other states that have included HIV in medically frail definitions for work requirement waivers.
