I do say this all the time. Eventually maybe hopefully we will do something about it and decide to prioritize our nation’s children and future.

In the US, if you look at our spending at the federal budget level, we spend 5x per capita on people over the age of 65 than we do for people under the age of 18. It shows you the priorities of a society. - @kearney_melissa

🚨 New Working Paper! 🚨 Excited to share our new study with @LHoehnVelasco & @ReinaHuang on Public Payment Mandates & Provider Supply: a look at how Medicaid reimbursement helped bring Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNMs) into mainstream U.S. healthcare 🧵

- CNMs’ pay employment both rose
- The mechanism driving this result is high autonomy for CNMs through the scope of practice laws /5

💡 Takeaway: Reimbursement mandates are a powerful lever that reshape the healthcare workforce and expand access to maternal care.
