More than one in five Americans rely on Medicaid for health insurance, including nearly 1 million Illinois residents.

Pritzker warned of dire consequences to the state's health care infrastructure if Medicaid cuts are enacted, noting that more than 3.4 million Illinois residents are covered by the program.

The report shows enrollment in the state’s Medicaid-like programs for undocumented immigrants was nearly double original estimates. In some cases, enrollees weren't even "undocumented."

As it stands now, Medicaid doesn't come close to covering the full costs of care, writes the president and CEO of the Illinois Health & Hospital Association.

Hospitals, pharmacies, physicians and schools will feel the impact of any Medicaid cuts, writes the acting director of the Illinois Department of Healthcare & Family Services.

Cuts to Medicaid would especially impact the most vulnerable in communities, such as low-income individuals and people with disabilities, according to state Democratic congressional members.
