Sure. So America does not have a nationalized insurance program, as we are very frustrated with most of the time. It's mostly commercial insurance that you mostly get through your job. But if you are not fortunate, it's not the right word.

But if you're not fortunate enough to get that, Medicaid is the system that gives health insurance to people who are living at or below the federal poverty line. With the Affordable Care Act or the ACA, Obamacare, that level raised a little bit. So you could still get Medicaid if you were at above the federal poverty line, but this is mostly for the working poor. That's who gets Medicaid.

Yeah. So most of the work that we do is fee-for-service. We're not a lot different than a lot of other places in that regard, right? If you have Medicaid patients, we are a fee-for-service program. We give provision of care to them on a per-visit basis, same as anywhere else in the country and how that works, and we get reimbursed for it.

What makes FQs different than everywhere else is two things. One, we get a special rate that is designated because of our willingness to take on these more expensive, more complicated patients and to ensure that they are healthy enough to keep About expensive systems of care, like emergency rooms and things of that nature. And two is that we have a grant called the Fed 330.

And this is a sort of like large sort of use it as you need to grant that depending on the agency is anywhere from five to 25% of your total annual funds and is meant to cover all of the folks who can't afford care and are uninsured.

Yeah. I think it's worth talking about the fact that, like, there are so many angles of attack on this, right? There is the one that is just very clearly aimed at trans kids, right? The EO that specifies, like, protecting children. It's nonsense. But that is aimed at ending this care everywhere. Now, are they going to be able to do it everywhere? I don't know. Maybe, but not quickly.

But they can end it for FQHCs all across the country by simply making it like the Hyde Amendment. Right. Right. Right. Then there are also just the doge fuckery that is going to harm all of this and may create a lot of the same outcomes, right? Which is they turned off grants kind of just across the board.
