Abstract

Examines the emergence of diversion programs in state welfare reform and the potential for these programs to reduce access to Medicaid, finding that diversion strategies are increasingly common; diversion has substantial potential to reduce initial access to Medicaid; and the compelling policy challenge is how to use Medicaid effectively to support the welfare reform goal to promote work.
