Fact Sheet
MEDICAID DISCRIMINATION AGAINST PEOPLE WITH SEVERE MENTAL ILLNESSES
"Increasingly, individuals with
mental illnesses are left to fend for themselves on the streets, where they victimize
others or, more frequently, are victimized themselves. Eventually, many wind up in prison,
where the likelihood of treatment is nearly as remote."
---Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan in the Congressional Record, July 12, 1999
