Georgia Health Report: Medicaid work requirements surprise some states

Coming up on the Georgia Health Report, the Trump administration has issued final rules on how states should ensure that millions of low-income Americans meet new work requirements for Medicaid.

Those rules are stricter than expected – and have sent states scrambling to make sure they’re ready to enforce them.

Host Havivah Saltz is joined by Sam Whitehead, a reporter based in Atlanta with K-F-F Health News.

Havivah Saltz has been with WUGA since 2023 as an on-air host and the producer for African Perspectives. She got her start in radio on WOBC FM at Oberlin College (class of ‘23), and she’s also an on-air host on Athens' Power 100.1 and Magic 102.1. Outside of work, you can find Havivah making art, writing fiction, practicing Japanese, petting her very round cat, and watching concerning amounts of TV.
