The National Association of Medicaid Directors, in a highly unusual move, send out an alarm blaring of the destruction that Graham-Cassidy would wreck on State bureaucracies and Healthcare infrastructures.
”The National Association of Medicaid Directors said Thursday that the bill would impose significant challenges to states, chiefly that they would shoulder too much risk under the legislation. The group is the latest stakeholder to oppose the measure, joining doctors, insurer and hospital groups skeptical of what is considered by Republicans their last chance to overhaul Obamacare….
“"The scope of this work, and the resources required to support state planning and implementation activities, cannot be overstated," it said. "States will need to develop overall strategies, invest in infrastructure development, systems changes, provider and managed care plan contracting, and perform a host of other activities."
It added the "vast majority" of states couldn't do that within two years.”

If the Republicans enact this shit legislation, there will be dire consequences not only for patients, but also for State Governments, the entire health care system, and the American economy as a whole.
On a scale of 1 to 10 how nuts are they?
