Provisions from the Safer Communities Act of 2022 use Medicaid to expand school-based health care and other youth behavioral health services. KFF explores the implementation of these provisions, with a focus on recent guidance from @CMSGov. bit.ly/3w5f6xp
Medicare is currently prohibited by law from covering drugs when prescribed for obesity. Now that the FDA has approved use of Wegovy to reduce heart attacks and stroke in some patients, what does this mean for Medicare coverage of the drug? bit.ly/3UunNuw
Florida’s new law preventing localities from mandating heat protections could impact nearly 1.8 million nonelderly outdoor workers in the state, 4 in 10 of whom are Hispanic and 1 in 5 noncitizen immigrants. Read the latest analysis by @KFF : kff.org/racial-equity-…
Florida is the second state to enact a policy that prevents local ordinances from mandating certain heat protections, including water breaks. Our analysis shows how this law could disproportionately affect Hispanic and noncitizen immigrant workers: bit.ly/4dbSRXd
KFF analysis shows state abortion bans and restrictions may widen the already stark racial and ethnic disparities in maternal health — especially as some do not have explicit exceptions for when pregnancy is jeopardizing a woman’s health. bit.ly/4bbEiBk
How might expanded coverage of Wegovy affect Medicare spending? It will depend on how many Part D plans add coverage for Wegovy (and the extent to which it’s covered), how many people use the drug, the negotiated prices paid by the plans, and more. bit.ly/3UunNuw
How does the recent guidance from @CMSGov increase access to behavioral health care services in schools? KFF explores implementation of provisions from the Safer Communities Act of 2022. bit.ly/3w5f6xp

Many pregnant people seek emergency care, but when that care requires an abortion, does federal law preempt state abortion bans? Learn more about the #SCOTUS #EMTALA case: bit.ly/49HmjkU

What does the new FDA-approved indication for Wegovy mean for Medicare coverage of the GLP-1 medication? We explore this, and more, in our new analysis: bit.ly/3UunNuw
