Association of Medicaid expansion with quality in safety-net hospitals.
The authors compared changes in quality from 2012 to 2018 between safety net hospitals (SNHs) in states that expanded Medicaid vs those in states that did not. They found that, despite reductions in uncompensated care and improvements in operating margins, there appeared to be little evidence of quality improvement among SNHs in states that expanded Medicaid compared with those in states that did not.
