Some states are moving to name, shame and potentially penalize large companies whose employees rely on Medicaid. It’s part of an effort to spotlight what lawmakers describe as insufficient employer-provided health coverage, according to a new report.
In California, legislators are attempting to revive a dormant law that would require the state to publicly name firms with 100 or more employees whose workers are enrolled in Medicaid. Similar legislation has been floated in Oregon, while Nevada already has such a measure on the books, CBS News reported.
