Block-grant federal Medicaid funding to states
Davidson supports block-granting federal Medicaid funding to states on a per-citizen basis and eliminating most federal Medicaid mandates. He says federalism provides a path to reform the safety net and argues this change would remove incentives for states to claim Medicaid payments for people unlawfully present in the country.
Context: The proposal concerns federal Medicaid funding and mandates; the passage does not specify how the block-grant amounts would be calculated beyond a per-citizen basis.
In their own words
Eliminate most federal mandates and block grant all federal Medicaid on a per citizen basis.
