Extractions: (includes seniors, disabled, uninsured and others) As of September 2005 at least 41 states have established or authorized some type of program to provide pharmaceutical coverage or assistance, primarily to low-income elderly or persons with disabilities who do not qualify for Medicaid. Most programs utilize state funds to subsidize a portion of the costs, usually for a defined population that meets enrollment criteria, but an increasing number use discounts or bulk purchasing approaches. GROWING NUMBERS: 38 states have enacted laws to create programs; three others are by executive branch action only. 36 states' laws (plus DC) provide for a direct subsidy using state funds; of these 25 are in operation. 25 states have created or authorized programs that offer a discount only (no subsidy) for eligible or enrolled seniors; of these 17 are in operation. A majority of these states also have a separate subsidy program.

Extractions: Retirees and soon-to-be retirees from other states are continually urged by South Carolina's governmental agencies to come to our state of "smiling faces and beautiful places" to enjoy their Golden Years. But if the South Carolina House Ways and Means Committee has its way, these new South Carolinians - not to mention the hundreds of thousands of seniors and future seniors already living here - had better not get sick and think Medicaid will help pay their medical bills. If they are not wealthy enough to pay their own way, they will be out of luck. The 2000-2001 appropriations bill recently reported out of the Ways and Means Committee to the House of Representatives effectively calls for an $87 million cut in our Medicaid programs. This cut includes not only the committee's rejection of $37 million of new funding requested by Health and Human Services to cover the annual growth in the cost of services and the number of recipients covered by Medicaid, but also provisos that legislators have tacked on that would cost Health and Human Services at least an extra $50 million to carry out.
