Dear [elected official],

First and foremost, we must acknowledge that Medicaid is a critical health care safety net for a third of West Virginians.  The COVID-19 crisis has driven home the value of the Medicaid program for our state.

Second, an affordable Medicaid Buy-in program would provide adult West Virginians who currently do not have access to affordable health coverage a new, more affordable, quality health insurance plan option.

This Medicaid Buy-in plan would cover a comprehensive set of benefits and have low deductibles and copays.  It would ensure affordable health coverage for more low-wage workers who are hurt by the Medicaid “cliff effect” – those that earn over Medicaid income eligibility levels but do not have an offer of affordable health insurance through their jobs and cannot afford the premiums and out-of-pocket costs of a private individual plan.

A Medicaid-to-work transition program already exists in West Virginia but only for people who are disabled or who have a chronic health condition:  the Medicaid Work Incentive (M-WIN) program.

Please support HB 3001 and help create the Affordable Medicaid Buy-in Program, so that more West Virginians have access to affordable, quality health care. Help create a healthier, stronger West Virginia.

Sincerely, [Your information here]
