But they say they can find a doctor......

Shortage of Medicaid Doctors? Not if You Ask Patients
NOV. 10, 2014


Medicaid enrollees may, in fact, have to work a bit harder to find a primary care doctor who will see them, but almost all are still able to find one. Using data from a large, nationally representative survey, Genevieve Kenney and colleagues did find that a substantial minority, 11 percent, of new Medicaid enrollees said that they had difficulty making an appointment. But only 2.8 percent said that they could not do so at all. To be sure, the program ideally would provide access for all its enrollees, but a 2.8 percent failure rate is probably a lot lower than most people think and suggests modest improvements may be sufficient to bring that number to zero.
