The question of systemic issues with the way TennCare handles eligibility assessments is before the courts now, per this subscriber-only dive into a @TNJusticeCenter class-action suit. @BrettKelman can& #39;t tweet about it right now, but I can. https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/health/2020/04/20/tenncare-sued-for-cutting-kids-from-medicaid-coronavirus/5147433002/">https://www.tennessean.com/story/new... via @tennessean

TennCare has made changes re: COVID-19. The suit focuses on the potential 1,000s of people cut from the insurance system and who are not sure how to appeal. Advocates have argued the recently-updated eligibility system was archaic and flawed, with lingering effects.

The suit, on behalf of 35 kids and adults says even the upgrades haven& #39;t helped. Yes, I have been talking about this for years and no, there doesn& #39;t seem to be an end (or clarity) in sight. For more, as always, I hope you& #39;ll read the story. https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/health/2020/04/20/tenncare-sued-for-cutting-kids-from-medicaid-coronavirus/5147433002/">https://www.tennessean.com/story/new...
