What happened
The Trump administration issued mandates through CMS that apply to Medicaid enrollees in the District of Columbia. Separately, a rule was implemented ending federal Medicaid and CHIP funding for gender-affirming care for children and youth, citing insufficient evidence and safety concerns. Furthermore, CMS guidance was released that removes previous recommendations on how nursing home staff can assist residents in exercising their constitutional rights.

Why it matters
The new Medicaid rules have prompted corporate pushback from hospital executives, who claim the changes could result in costs reaching hundreds of billions of dollars. The restriction on federal funding for gender-affirming care shifts the financial responsibility for these treatments away from federal healthcare programs.
