Markey (D-Mass.), a member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee, and Senator Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) today\u00a0reintroduced\u00a0the\u00a0<em>Equity in\u00a0Pretrial\u00a0Health Coverage Act<\/em>, legislation that would protect the continuity of federal health benefits under Medicaid, Medicare, Children\u2019s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and Veterans Affairs for Americans who have been detained while they await trial and, in many cases, remain in custody because they cannot afford bail. These\u00a0protections\u00a0would\u00a0make\u00a0it easier for people to continue to access essential healthcare, including substance use disorder and mental health treatment, while incarcerated.\u00a0The\u00a0legislation would partially reverse the 1965 Federal Medicaid Inmate Exclusion Policy\u00a0(MIEP), which\u00a0generally bans\u00a0the use of\u00a0federal funds\u00a0to provide care for inmates of\u00a0a\u00a0public institution\u00a0under Medicaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cHealthcare&nbsp;is a human right.&nbsp;It is unjust&nbsp;and immoral&nbsp;to strip people of their health coverage&nbsp;simply because&nbsp;they&nbsp;can\u2019t&nbsp;afford to pay their bail,\u201d&nbsp;<strong>dijo el senador Markey<\/strong>. \u201cCongress&nbsp;must&nbsp;eliminate&nbsp;the&nbsp;discriminatory policies that make it harder for people to get the healthcare they need, including&nbsp;treatment for&nbsp;substance use disorder or mental health services.&nbsp;I am proud to partner with Senator Merkley&nbsp;in&nbsp;fighting&nbsp;to&nbsp;break down barriers to essential healthcare and create a system that puts&nbsp;care and compassion over&nbsp;incarceration.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cAmericans who have serious health conditions\u2014including those who are awaiting trial\u2014need access to quality health care and can\u2019t afford to be kicked off of those benefits,\u201d\u202f<strong>dijo el senador Merkley.<\/strong>\u202f\u201cIn America, you are innocent until proven guilty, and the\u202f<em>Equity in Pre-Trial Health Coverage Act\u202f<\/em>will ensure that pre-trial detainees can keep their health coverage and seek the medical treatment they need.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, individuals who&nbsp;are&nbsp;arrested and&nbsp;can&nbsp;post bail&nbsp;maintain&nbsp;their coverage.&nbsp;But&nbsp;those&nbsp;who&nbsp;remain&nbsp;in custody&nbsp;because&nbsp;they&nbsp;cannot&nbsp;afford bail&nbsp;can lose&nbsp;coverage, despite&nbsp;being&nbsp;charged but not convicted of a crime. As a result, a gap&nbsp;in coverage&nbsp;exists&nbsp;for individuals covered by federal health programs awaiting trial, which&nbsp;restricts their&nbsp;access&nbsp;to&nbsp;essential&nbsp;care&nbsp;in their community and shifts the cost of medical treatment for pretrial detainees to local city, county, and state agencies. This gap is particularly challenging for people with substance use disorders and other mental health conditions,&nbsp;which require consistent and sustained medical treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cosponsors in the Senate include Senators Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Tammy Baldwin (D-Wisc.),&nbsp;Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), and&nbsp;Alex Padilla (D-Calif.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2022,&nbsp;Senator&nbsp;Markey&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.markey.senate.gov\/news\/press-releases\/senator-markey-secures-major-climate-health-infrastructure-investments-in-end-of-year-spending-package\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">secured provisions<\/a>&nbsp;in the end-of-year&nbsp;spending package&nbsp;(Consolidated Appropriations Act,&nbsp;2023)&nbsp;that&nbsp;allow&nbsp;states to&nbsp;maintain&nbsp;Medicaid&nbsp;coverage&nbsp;for juveniles&nbsp;who are in custody pending deposition of charges.
