Nadia Gompers, a quadriplegic with cerebral palsy who relies on a motorized wheelchair, has been left without essential Medicaid coverage after her insurance was unexpectedly denied at the end of July. The young woman, who has lived her entire life needing assistance, was approved for Medicaid assistance through the Maryland Department of Health earlier this year. However, the sudden loss of coverage has created significant financial and care challenges for her family. #medicaid #maryland #news
