Medicaid Disenrollment and Disparities in Access to Care: Evidence from Tennessee.

Wafa W Tarazi1, Tiffany L Green1, Lindsay M Sabik1.   

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of Tennessee's 2005 Medicaid disenrollment on access to health care among low-income nonelderly adults. DATA SOURCE/STUDY
SETTING: We use data from the 2003-2008 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. STUDY
DESIGN: We examined the effects of Medicaid disenrollment on access to care among adults living in Tennessee compared with neighboring states, using difference-in-difference models. PRINCIPAL
FINDINGS: Evidence suggests that Medicaid disenrollment resulted in significant decreases in health insurance and increases in cost-related barriers to care for low-income adults living in Tennessee. Statistically significant changes were not observed for having a personal doctor.
CONCLUSIONS: Medicaid disenrollment is associated with reduced access to care. This finding is relevant for states considering expansions or contractions of Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. © Health Research and Educational Trust.
