The Real Medicaid Crisis Isn’t Cuts—It’s The Model Itself

The Real Medicaid Crisis Isn’t Cuts—It’s The Model Itself
SHARE

The recent passage of the “One, Big, Beautiful Bill” Act on May 22, 2025, has sparked concern among hospitals and trade groups regarding proposed Medicaid reductions. These organizations are warning of serious consequences to access and financial stability in the healthcare industry. While the alarm over Medicaid cuts is justified, it only scratches the surface of a much larger issue that has been overlooked for far too long.

The real problem lies within the broken business model of healthcare that continues to drain resources into unproductive spending. It’s not just a matter of funding shortfalls or changes in Medicaid reimbursement rates; it’s about confronting the inefficiencies that have plagued the system and made basic healthcare coverage seem out of reach.

Medicaid has historically been a challenging payment mode for providers, with low reimbursement rates and excessive administrative burdens. However, it has been a crucial lifeline for many healthcare organizations, especially after the Affordable Care Act expanded coverage. But as the federal government reevaluates eligibility and reduces its contribution, states are left to fill the gap, putting immense strain on already constrained budgets.

The looming Medicaid cuts are just the latest in a series of policy changes that have slowly eroded confidence in the healthcare business model. Each time funding is tweaked or new regulations are introduced, providers adapt without truly transforming the underlying issues of value alignment, administrative inefficiencies, and skewed incentives that prioritize volume over outcomes.

To truly address the escalating costs and ensure access to care for all Americans, the healthcare system must undergo a fundamental transformation. This involves shifting towards a value-based payment model that rewards outcomes, promotes transparency in cost and quality, and empowers consumers to make informed decisions about their care.

While Medicaid cuts may exacerbate the current crisis, they are not the root cause. The real problem lies in a system that is riddled with inefficiencies and lacks accountability for delivering value. If we continue to patch up the model instead of redesigning it from the ground up, we will never truly solve the underlying issues that plague the healthcare industry.

It’s time to stop managing symptoms and start curing the disease. By addressing the core flaws in the healthcare payment model and prioritizing value over volume, we can create a system that provides meaningful coverage for all Americans without increasing overall spending. The resources are there; we just need to deploy them more effectively to ensure a sustainable and accessible healthcare system for the future.
