Medicaid Expansion for Virginia
Members of the Virginia Legislature voted to extend Medicaid coverage to 400,000 of Virginia’s uninsured by July 2014, if a series of reforms are made to the program. Of note, In Virginia, expansion of Medicaid means that:
•Adults making up to 138% of the Federal Poverty Level (approximately $15,500/year for a single adult) will be eligible to receive health insurance, including access to preventive health care and coverage for emergency dental extractions - minimizing the need to seek care in the hospital emergency departments.
•Virginia will benefit with an estimated $2 billion in federal funds for Virginia's healthcare sector, 30,000 jobs, economic development, and new state tax revenues
PRDC accepts Medicaid Insurance and welcomes new patients. We applaud the Virginia Legislature for their support for basic health care for Virginians.
