Half a million people in less than a dozen states have lost Medicaid coverage since April

More than 500,000 people across 11 states have lost their Medicaid coverage since the unwinding of a policy that allowed people to stay in the program throughout the pandemic. The data, reported by the states and tracked by health policy researcher KFF, shows that of the five states providing data on people who lost Medicaid coverage for procedural reasons rather than not meeting eligibility requirements, Indiana and Arkansas have the largest share.

In Brief

Staff at Greenwood and Restlawn cemeteries will begin their annual post-Memorial Day cleanup on June 13. Any temporary decorations left on gravesites will be discarded. If you have any decorations you would like to keep, please remove them by June 12. This does not include flowers in permanent vases.

How do Kansans experience their state’s wildlife? This state agency decided to find out.

Overall, survey participants split fairly evenly, with non-consumptive wildlife viewers tipping at 53%. Consumptive viewers were more familiar with KDWP and its programs. Financial contributions primarily came from fishing licenses and land access permits, though 25% of respondents had made no contributions to the agency. One third of all participants said they didn’t think KDWP was doing enough to protect state wildlife and its habitat. However, a third of participants said they would increase support to the agency if they knew funds were being used for conservation. Other issues included access to wildlife viewing opportunities and communication from the agency.
