The long-term impacts of Medicaid exposure in early childhood: evidence from the program's origin.
This paper examines the long-term impact of exposure to Medicaid in early childhood on adult health and economic status. Its analyses suggest that exposure to Medicaid in early childhood (age 0-5) is associated with statistically significant and meaningful improvements in adult health (age 25-54), and this effect is only seen in subgroups targeted by the program.
