Resum
Joint federal and state health care program Medicaid for low-income families and individuals has regained importance, with millions of Americans recently losing their employer-based healthcare insurance. This academic study analyzes the bipartisan nature of the Democratically-championed Affordable Care Act and Medicaid expansion throughout states. It uses a panel data fixed effects model to assess whether political party affiliation of governors is correlated with state expenditure on Medicaid fiscal periods 1997 to 2018, concluding that Medicaid expenditure on average is higher if Democratic governors rule in contrast to Republican governors especially for federal shares of state expenditure.Descripció
