The Senate will vote soon on the American Health Care Act, which proposes dismantling Medicaid. Tell your Senator to protect the Medicaid expansion and Essential Health Benefits so that people with substance use disorder can receive the treatment they need. If Medicaid expansion is repealed, states hardest hit by the opioid epidemic would be at greatest risk for reductions in coverage.
A fully integrated healthcare system must account for the treatment of substance use disorder. Addiction is a health issue, not a moral failing, and should be treated as such.
