It breaks my heart knowing you’re feeling this, and I wish more than anything I could help… Things fall apart, but maybe we can somehow build something beautiful from the pieces

People laugh when I tell them PA is Pennsyltucky- and they often think I’m being hyperbolic.. I wish I could say this is shocking. I wish so much it was a rogue person. But there is some deep seated hatred and racism in PA. The scenery is beautiful, but too many of its people are pure filth.

I’ve used it to help me navigate clinical policies(followed up verifying independently as well), find informational letters from the state that are relevant to certain appeals, generate tables of data quickly, and to help me professionally tell people to fuck off lol

Gahhhh I’ll have to do some research! I’m out of touch with what’s available but depending on location there might be local grants that could help!!

I’d rather my taxes be spent on those seeking better, a chance and who contribute so much to our society. Instead, we are forced to pay for a psychopath that’s enable by psychopaths who contribute nothing but shame, chaos, and harm to our society. People need to care more.

Today, an overwhelming amount of people- neighbors, friends, parents, coworkers- will lose access to healthcare because of nothing but a disgusting attack on immigrants. This administration, and the assholes who allowed this to happen, are the most vile, racist, ignorant and pathetic people alive.

I think it’s a let’s take these bed time drugs early kind of night. I hate men. This fucking world is so depressing for women because of them.

Also, worth mentioning is that while I would LOVE HCBS to be required because that’s IMHO the best approach to long term success, LTSS is only under Medicaid. Neither LTSS or HCBS are covered by Medicare, which is why I can’t support moving Medicare to children if LTSS isn’t clearly on the table

multiple waiver populations every day! These programs are incredible, and the outcomes are amazing. It should absolutely be expanded!! (Waitlists even in the smallest population of states for most are years long and that is criminal IMHO)
030
The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Dramatically drop. They want HCBS to end up costing more though so they can start pulling waivers and go back to forced institutions. (Waivers are only approved if they can prove it costs less and now they have wait lists tied to it) super simplified response, but the gist is there lol I work with

If we were to go to Medicaid for All, it would remove the variance between states and also help eliminate some access issues for people who need to travel across state lines for specialty care. If we actually invested in it, instead of watching republicans slash every cent possible, waitlists

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Wait lists are astronomical, but that’s largely in part that HCBS isn’t a required service where as LTSS is (they often go hand in hand) HCBS is entirely dependent on waiver funding, and at any moment can be discontinued but LTSS can’t be and is part of all standard Medicaid.

I’m ok, just so exhausted from life recently and giving too much without getting anything back. It’s just been draining between work, life, this election cycle, just the whole of it is frustrating and taxing and has left me questioning so much

It’s the premise of Medicaid, however still doesn’t address the whole point of my post, which is the problem. I’m so tired of people who very clearly don’t understand something trying to argue it.

There is literally NOTHING on your little photo that addresses LTSS, which is the whole fucking problem. You’re a hoot

Wow, it’s like you didn’t even read my post/listen to the video. Please spam elsewhere, and please actually read what is being discussed unless you’re supporting people with disabilities losing all access to care. Also, please understand what Medicaid provides and is NOT being mentioned.

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
I’m hopeful lol I think a lot of people don’t realize how LTSS work too, and waiver programs. I had no idea they existed until I got into the organization I work for now!! I love getting to show families and caregivers that help is there, but hate that waitlists are so horribly long 💔

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
I think he’s heading in that direction, but I worry because he focused on Medicare and Advantage plans, and the push to create one system for Medicare where the “advantages” are included that it’s being forgotten the differences between Medicare and Medicaid and people won’t know what they’re losing

by a drunk driver or something similar. It isn’t only about protecting those born with chronic illness or disabilities, but all of us because life can change so dramatically, so fast, without warning to anyone

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Yep, there have been great proposals using “Medicare For All” phrasing that are Medicaid for All to try and avoid the stigma, but I wish people could understand why we need Medicaid. All of us. Because it really is a blink of an eye between being completely healthy and independent and being hit

Also, just to clarify, I agree with a lot of what El-Sayed is saying here, I don’t hate his messaging, but with mentioning expanding to children, I have to say wait a minute, because if we are moving that direction, then it needs to be addressed as Medicaid is what covers kids

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
closer to Medicaid, but without mentioning LTSS and Community based services, which is where advocacy becomes important so people know what to make sure they demand

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
the work I do is largely part of advocating for these groups, it’s something I have to keep doing here as well. People aren’t aware of what they don’t know, so when it comes time to legislate, they aren’t going to push for it. Medicare as it stands is a scam, but what’s being described is

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
I’m very supportive of those calling for M4A who are addressing making sure that people with chronic illnesses and disabilities aren’t left behind, but politicians needs to be clear about what they are advocating for. Too often we see that promises made and what’s legislated rarely line up and as

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
Change provider rates for Medicaid to what they are for Medicare (to start) and expand coverage to anyone that wants to apply for it. The framework is already there. (Though absolutely will take time and work to implement, the long term benefits are astronomical AND will end up saving so much $)
040
The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
RIGHT! Medicare honestly needs to be abolished entirely. It’s a scam on the same level as employer based health insurance. He’s describing Medicaid, while ignoring that Medicaid is the solution. Make dental/vision universal to all Medicaid recipients (it’s not technically universal but does exist)

Sharing your stories and experiences is the first step and often the most beneficial because it’s real life examples and not just a name on a piece of paper ❤️

are left in the dark and on their own and often times decide that taking on debt or suffering are the better option. It’s horrible. And we absolutely CAN do better. It’s going to take a lot of hard work, but a healthier population is only going to benefit all of us. You are already advocating!!

The bureaucratic tape right now is horrific- and so intensely overly complicated by design. This administration has also made it even worse by tying up resources into having to verify things that aren’t going to change costs (work requirements, etc) which only complicates it more. Most people

Excellent example of why LTSS needs to be a priority. Without doing so, people like DJ’s daughter and SO many others, will be left behind. Something else to consider, we are all just one accident away from needing LTSS.

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
FACTS. I could go off for hours about how so many people are left behind and forgotten about when it comes to the M4A proposal. There have been bills presented that would address LTSS/HCBS as well, and that I can support, but we need Medicaid coverage with Medicare rates for clinicians.

The Marvelous Ms. Medicaid @msmedicaid.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
end up losing access to so much if we don’t make sure LTSS is top priority in an M4A structure
