Newsom seeks another $2.8B for bloated health program overwhelmed by illegal immigrants

California Governor Gavin New Roosom requires an additional loan of $ 2.8 billion to address an enlarged deficit in the Medicaid in the state, which has greatly exceeded budget expectations due to the coverage of illegal immigrants.

This new request comes after the democratic ruler asked legislators last week to obtain a $ 3.4 billion loan from the General Fund to cover the costs due for Medi-Cal, one of the primary health care programs in the state that takes both federal and state taxpayers dollars.

“With difficult financial options in the future, the news, in conjunction with the professional with the Pro Tem Mcguire and Rivas, will evaluate the long-term spending proposals-including in Medi-Cal-while working to protect the basic health and social services on which California depends on California.”

An additional $ 2.8 billion will keep the health care program standing on its feet until June.

The newsom office has retreated to the high health care costs that are rising due to illegal immigrants on the programs. Instead, it attributes the increases to the high enrollment rate of all population and pharmaceutical costs. The administration also referred to other states, Pennsylvania and Indiana, which also faces a shortage of budget in their Medicaid programs.

However, Republicans in the legislative body, who were chasing against increasing spending in the state for years, blame the state’s policies as the perpetrator for a lack of projection.

“This is an amazing amount of $ 6.2 billion on the budget … and the costs continue to climb unveiling on the horizon,” wrote the leader of the Republican minority in the Senate in California, Brian Jones, in a post on Monday. “California residents should not be forced to bear the burden of financial mismanagement of extremist Democrats.”

Jones wrote: “Even Jerry Brown refused to expand Medi-Cal to all illegal immigrants because he knew that he was not financially responsible and could not continue,” Jones wrote. “Now according to newsom, legal population pays the price financially or lower access to health care. The public deserves answers: Why are the costs much higher than the news?

Last year, the Medi-Cal California sought to cover all low-income adults between the ages of 26 to 49 years, regardless of the migration state, making it the first state to do so. Almost 1.6 million illegal immigrants are registered in the state’s health care program, according to state data, and 15 million California residents are registered.

The state’s health care market, covered in California, says on its website. There is no “waiting period” or “five -year tape.”

The state initially estimated that the program will cost just less than 6 billion dollars in the fiscal year 2024 to 2025. However, one year after the program, this budget swollen. In response, Republicans in the House of Representatives recently submitted a proposal to reduce $ 880 billion from a set of programs, especially Medicaid, over the next ten years.

The latest budget suggestion projects in newsom will spend $ 8.4 billion to cover illegal immigrants at Medi-Cal in the period 2024-2025, followed by $ 7.4 billion in 2025-2026. During a budget hearing with legislators, Michelle Bass, director of health care services-which runs Medi-Cal-reduced the number of illegal immigrants registered last year significantly.

“The administration had only one month of data on” unprecedented “policies before she had to provide expectations for the budget signed by newsom”, and all happened at the same time. “
