FV Indiana appreciates our members' commitment to sharing with policymakers why Medicaid Matters. As Congress faces difficult budget challenges in the coming weeks, we are thrilled to share with you an additional way to share your voice. National Family Voices together with the American Academy of Pediatrics, March of Dimes, The National Association of Children's Hospitals and MANY others is hosting a briefing at noon on Tuesday, November 29th for Members of Congress and their staff on Medicaid and role that it plays in supporting various populations of children including children with special health care needs.

Children, first and foremost, should be provided medicaid to a certain age. We're supposed to be a great leading nation, yet many of the children in the United States are suffering from not having the capabilities to see a doctor when needed. How are we supposed to open doors for children who are suffering from severe illnesses because they are not able to pay their healthcare with no insurance?
