总统特朗普签署法案, 削减联邦医疗援助计划支出330亿美元, 可能威胁全美农村医院及医疗服务。 President Trump signed a bill that cuts federal Medicaid spending by $33 billion, potentially threatening rural hospitals and healthcare services across the U.S. 该法案包括一项500亿美元的农村保健基金,但专家怀疑这是否足以抵消农村地区医疗援助计划开支减少的1 370亿美元。 The bill includes a $50 billion fund for rural health, but experts doubt it will be sufficient to offset the $137 billion reduction in Medicaid spending in rural areas. 严重依赖医疗补助的农村医院可能面临关闭或服务削减。 Rural hospitals, which heavily rely on Medicaid, may face closure or service cuts. 该法案还引入了可能导致数十万人失去医疗补助覆盖面的工作要求,加重了农村保健系统的财政压力。 The bill also introduces work requirements that could cause hundreds of thousands to lose their Medicaid coverage, adding to the financial strain on rural healthcare systems.
