Enrollment Barriers, Procedural Denials, and Loss of Medicaid Coverage

The goal of this study is to try new outreach methods to improve access to Medicaid for those who lost Medicaid for procedural reasons. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. How does a live phone call from a Navigator impact Medicaid enrollment among people who lost Medicaid coverage for procedural reasons? 2. What is the effectiveness of outreach using a live call rather than a pre-recorded call?
