Abstract
On July 1, 2023, Georgia became the first state to partially expand Medicaid eligibility to low-income adults with work requirements through a new program called Georgia Pathways to Coverage. Georgia Pathways is a partial expansion of Medicaid eligibility that covers persons with incomes up to 100% of the federal poverty level (≤$14 600 annually for an individual). In contrast, traditional Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which has been adopted by 40 states and the District of Columbia as of July 2023, covers individuals earning up to 138% of the federal poverty level (≤$20 130 annually for an individual).
