Medicaid is projected to ordsprog
 Congressional action on Medicaid appears imminent, and while we have few details about the shape Medicaid reform will take -- most of what we know, we don't like. We appreciate that policy makers have worked diligently to find appropriate ways to reform Medicaid; however, we fear that billions of dollars in cuts are being targeted at the Medicaid benefits that support our nation's most vulnerable citizens. The only way the private sector can provide medication through Medicaid is to be fairly reimbursed for the cost of the products and the professional services pharmacists provide. |
| The Medicaid Reform Act of 2006 recognizes the fact that Oklahoma has a broken, outdated system. In talking with Oklahomans, we've found that the Medicaid program is plagued with a lack of access to care, a lack of health literacy, and no incentives for Medicaid consumers to use the program wisely. |
| A successful Medicaid prescription drug program needs the support of America's 55,000 pharmacies and nearly 150,000 pharmacists who work with Medicaid patients every day.

| Community pharmacy has worked with state Medicaid programs to help implement cost savings and provide quality health care -- helping save tens of millions of dollars for states and the Federal Government, ... Community pharmacy has been particularly successful in increasing the use of lower-cost generic medications. That is why we strongly believe that a critical ingredient in achieving Medicaid savings is the establishment of a new system that encourages generic drug dispensing to Medicaid recipients. We can help Congress achieve Medicaid savings if they will partner with community pharmacy instead of making ill-advised budget cuts that will jeopardize patient access. |

| As the number of public hospitals continues to decline, the concern remains to what extent non-profit and for-profit hospitals are taking or will take on greater responsibilities as safety net providers, and to what degree their focus is on attracting the healthiest of Medicaid patients, leaving the sickest and costliest patients to the care of the remaining public or major safety net hospitals. |
| More people living with HIV/AIDS get their health care from Medicaid than any other federal program. Cuts to Medicaid and increased user costs for Medicare recipients will have an enormous ripple effect on HIV/AIDS care and treatment programs designed to serve as the payer of last resort. |

| With the high demand for long term care and in the wake of the worst natural disaster in history, cutting $10 billion from Medicaid for the sake of reconciliation is both socially and fiscally irresponsible, ... We need Medicaid now more than ever. |
