Just days before POWER account contributions were set to resume, a federal ruling was released that meant Indiana can no longer collect POWER account contributions or remove people from the program because of nonpayment.

Indiana says its Medicaid expansion program may be at risk along with the health insurance coverage of thousands of people.

A recent lawsuit argued against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services argued that POWER account contributions violate the law. A federal judge agreed.

Plaintiffs rejected a state motion to reinstate its authority to impose premium-like charges on Medicaid beneficiaries under the Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP).

Insurance companies may require pre-approval for medical services before they will cover it.

The number of Hoosiers without health insurance decreased between 2021 and 2022, falling 0.6% to 7% uninsured, according to a release from the United States Census Bureau.

A federal agency is alarmed by the magnitude of Medicaid coverage losses in states including Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky.

Indiana has a small number of large health care provider networks that generally serve the entire state.

Earlier this week, a U.S. district judge in Manhattan ruled the company failed to prove that the lawsuit lacked materiality.

Earlier this year, a study showed Indiana as the seventh most expensive state in terms of hospital costs.
