Hearing Reveals Loss Of Medicaid Coverage For Thousands In NE

Officials are confirming that thousands of Nebraskans lost their Medicaid coverage. Lawmakers held a hearing in Lincoln yesterday to examine Medicaid services in the state. Legislators learned that in a push to return to normal following the COVID-19 pandemic, more than 140-thousand Nebraskans were pushed out of their Medicaid coverage. Nearly half of the people who lost their coverage did so for procedural reasons.
