In this episode, Mike connects with expert Damon Terzaghi to tackle the hard truths facing our industry in the wake of massive legislative changes.

With an estimated $900 billion cut from Medicaid over the next decade, the pressure is on. We dive deep into what this means for providers, the workforce, and the vulnerable populations we serve.

🎧 Tune in to hear about:

The Reality of the Cuts: Why states can't just funnel these reductions to hospitals and why Home Care is in the crosshairs.

New Barriers to Care: The "Community Engagement" requirement demanding 80 hours per month of work or volunteering for eligibility—and the administrative nightmare it creates.

The Workforce Crisis: With provider rates likely to remain flat or be cut, how do we retain caregivers in an already fragile market?

The Path Forward: Why advocacy is no longer optional, but a survival skill for 2026 and beyond.

As Damon says, there is no way to cut this much money out of Medicaid without impacting older adults and people with disabilities. Listen now to get prepared.
