Medicaid Work Requirements: Who’s Affected and What’s at Stake

Health Affairs Publishing’s Jeff Byers welcomes Alison Barkoff of George Washington University to the pod to explore the evolving landscape of Medicaid work requirements.

They break down who is impacted by these policies, how the requirements are structured across states, and the real-world challenges of implementation. The conversation also explores concerns about administrative burden, potential coverage losses, and what these changes mean for beneficiaries, policymakers, and providers.

Topics covered:

What Medicaid work requirements are and how they work
Who qualifies—and who may lose coverage
State-level variations and policy design
Administrative complexity and compliance challenges
Potential impacts on access to care and health outcomes
