Thank you for the link. What it says is this:
Methods
We used a cross-sectional design across multiple data sets to produce state-based cost estimates for asthma-related ED visits among children younger than 18, where Medicaid/CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) was the primary payer.
I assumed patients who were already on Medicaid would have coverage for diseases such as asthma.
My question was about the asthmatic child of the middle-class guy who's lost his job and can't find another one by the time COBRA runs out.
Conservative65 seemed to be saying that this child would be covered by Medicaid.
Any time I ask him a question, he sees it as an attack.
So I'm still not clear on whether a middle-class family would be covered by Medicaid for chronic conditions other than end-stage renal disease but, again, thank you for making the effort!
