The opportunity to expand Medicaid to more low-income adults has opened the door to health coverage for millions of people who may never have had insurance before or who may have been uninsured for a long time. Many have pressing health needs that they have not been able to address because, without coverage, they could not afford to see a doctor or obtain necessary medications. Among the states that have not expanded Medicaid, the median eligibility threshold for parents with dependent children is just 45% of the federal poverty line.

Most Medicaid beneficiaries are employed or are in households where someone is working. In 2013, 79% of children who were Medicaid beneficiaries lived with at least one worker; 65% lived with at least one full-time worker. That year, 65% of adults with Medicaid were in a family with a worker; half were in a family with at least one full-time worker. Adults who qualify for Medicaid may be working but earning low wages and may not be able to afford private coverage.

Medicaid, like other health coverage programs, helps to assure access to health care. Independent research shows that the vast majority of Medicaid beneficiaries - whether they are children or adults - report that they have a usual source of care and have had a well-child visit or a general doctor visit in the past 12 months.
