Medicaid at 60: Examining the Program's Past, Present, and Future

President Lyndon B. Johnson signed Medicaid into law on July 30, 1965. Sixty years later, the program covers about one in five people. Medicaid’s 60th anniversary is an opportunity to reflect on the program’s evolution, take stock of its progress and pitfalls, and consider its future trajectory. Authors of a special issue of the Journal of Health Politics, Policy, and Law that reflects on Medicaid at 60 joined leaders from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to discuss Medicaid’s history; what changes to the program could mean for people’s health; how grassroots advocacy and policy influence each other; and what to watch in the years ahead. • 00:00 Introduction with David Adler, interim Vice President for policy at RWJF • 03:04 Remarks from Eric Patashnik, PhD, editor of the special issue of the journal and professor of political science at Brown University • 10:28 Remarks from Andrea Campbell, PhD, professor of political science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology • 19:07 Remarks from Jamila Michener, PhD, MA, associate professor of government at Cornell University • 31:12 Q&A begins • 57:57 Closing remarks from David Adler -------- Like what you see?
