Share Your Story | Soapboxx Video
Medicaid is an essential program for over 4 million Floridians, providing healthcare coverage for pregnant women and their newborn babies, children in low-income families and those with special health needs, frail seniors, and persons with disabilities needing long-term services and support. Yet, some beneficiaries experience systemic barriers to necessary care.
Sharing the stories of those who rely on Medicaid is critical. Your video testimonial will serve as a powerful advocacy tool to help educate the public, the media and policymakers in understanding how important Medicaid is for Floridians and their families.
