Florida 'callously' strips healthcare from thousands of children despite new law

Florida is continuing to "callously" strip healthcare coverage from thousands of children in lower-income households in defiance of a new federal law intended to protect them.

Since 1 January, more than 22,500 children have been disenrolled from Florida KidCare, its version of the Children's Health Insurance Program (Chip) that is jointly subsidized by states and the US government for families with earnings just above the threshold for Medicaid.

US congresswoman Kathy Castor, however, says the state's illegal dropping of enrolled children, and other recent developments - namely Florida's six-week abortion ban that will take effect on Wednesday - prove the state is more determined to restrict healthcare than expand it.

Castor said, "Hypocrisy abounds. On the ability of women to control when they have kids, and if they have kids, the state of Florida and Ron DeSantis says: 'You have to have children, you have to'.

"Then if you have a child, it says: 'OK, you're on your own,' even in the face of a new federal law. All of the research shows that if children get the care they need, especially in their early years, they're going to be more successful in school, have higher reading scores, higher graduation rates, they'll be more productive in life.

"This is a self-inflicted wound on the ability to have a healthy, functioning state of Florida."
