Executive Summary
The National Health Law Program (NHeLP), the Center for Public Representation, and 69 additional organizations filed this amicus brief detailing how the Trump administration’s Medicaid work requirements rule will strip health coverage from people with serious illnesses and disabilities.
The brief supports the plaintiff states’ motion for partial summary judgment, which argues that the administration’s Interim Final Rule unlawfully narrows the exemption Congress created for people who are medically frail or have special medical needs. The rule requires medically frail people to prove that their condition “significantly impairs” their ability to work and limits their ability to establish medical frailty through self-attestation.
