NBC News | "With Medicaid cuts looming, misinformation spreads on social media"

NBC News published an article quoting the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health's Dr. Arturo Vargas Bustamante, professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management, about the Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) systems.
"While Latinos represent 28% of all Medicaid and the CHIP enrollees, they account for 37% of beneficiaries with limited benefits that cover only specific services. 'They actually use health care services less than other groups, because of systemic barriers such as limited English proficiency and difficulty navigating the system,' said Arturo Vargas Bustamante, a professor at UCLA’s Fielding School of Public Health and faculty research director at the university’s Latino Policy and Politics Institute."
