Dr. Oz unveils Medicaid overhaul, clamps down on $2B for illegal immigrants and mandates work for able-bodied

The Trump administration, led by CMS Administrator Dr. Oz, is implementing a Medicaid overhaul targeting $2 billion in federal funds allocated to illegal immigrants and introducing work requirements for able-bodied recipients. The policy aims to recover misallocated funds, particularly from California, and mandates 20 hours of weekly work, volunteering, or education for Medicaid eligibility, framed as a 'path to prosperity' to prevent program abuse.
