Funny Medicaid Math


Here is a tough equation to figure out. More and more states are cutting more and more from Medicaid. For example, they are lowering what is offered to Medicaid patients or paying even less to doctors. Physicians don't mind, by the way, as fewer are even accepting Medicaid. Knowing this, the Democrat Healthcare Bill still wants to put more Americans on Medicaid. That number could exceed15 million. Can someone help me figure this math out? I sucked in calculus so maybe I am missing something.
