In this discussion, released soon after John Z. Ayanian, M.D., M.P.P., published a Perspective in the New England Journal of Medicine looking ahead to the planned implementation of Medicaid work requirements, he lays out the opportunity to obtain longitudinal data to guide Medicaid policy, including data on health consequences for people who lose coverage.
