The House Oversight Subcommittee on Healthcare and Financial Services questioned Ellen Montz of the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services regarding transparency on a proposed rule to extend Medicaid insurance coverage to recipients of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.
"The Biden Administration and CMS are willfully incentivizing further illegal immigration by proposing to expand Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program , and the Affordable Care Act marketplace eligibility to DACA recipients," read a statement from the Republican majority after the hearing.President Joe Biden announced the proposed rule in April, and the comment period on the rule listed in the federal register closed on June 23.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez retorted that extending Medicaid coverage to DACA recipients"shouldn't even be a question" because Dreamers are"America's proof of concept." Montz testified that she did not know about the rate of illegal immigration and stressed that this extension of subsidized or free health insurance would only be available to those who fit the criteria of DACA recipients, or those who came to the United States as minors before 2007."[The Department of Health and Human Services] does not set immigration policy," said Montz.
Montz explained that CMS estimates that only approximately 13,000 individuals would be enrolled in Medicaid under the DACA extension.
