Utah's TAM Program Faces Shutdown
Description
Utah’s Targeted Adult Medicaid program, a lifeline for the poorest and most vulnerable adults, faces imminent shutdown—despite proven success in reducing ER visits, jail returns, and long-term costs while helping people rebuild their lives. Legislators and local officials warn cutting it would shift burdens to police and hospitals, not solve root problems. With CMS now weighing the decision, advocates urge reconsideration: this program isn’t just compassionate—it’s smart policy that aligns with shared goals of health, safety, and self-sufficiency.
