Overview
- Georgia is suing the Biden administration to extend its Medicaid program with a work requirement until 2028.
- The program, Georgia Pathways, is the only Medicaid program in the country with a work requirement and is set to expire in September 2025.
- A federal judge previously ruled the Biden administration's revocation of the work requirement and premium charges as illegal.
- As of mid-December, the program had enrolled just under 2,350 people, with the state estimating it could add 100,000 poor and uninsured residents.
- The lawsuit seeks a court order to extend the program, arguing the federal government's actions reduced its originally approved term.
