All I want for Christmas
Is a world that cares
That all kids get care
Everywhere
Gee, if we could only
have ALL kids get care,
then I could wish you
“Merry Christmas!”
It seems so wonderful to hear
That more kids have found coverage in our state
Gosh, oh gee, how happy I’d be,
with 100% insured rate.
All I want for Christmas
is Medicaid and CHIP
for our kids,
all our kids
Yet, we still have one million uninsured kids,
I hope they don’t get the flu on Christmas.
It seems so sad that I must say,
“Susie, fill out this long application.”
Gosh, oh gee, how confused she’ll be,
she’ll quit in blind frustration.
All I want for Christmas is health equity from sea to sea,
why can’t we agree?
Gee, if we could only have health equity,
then I could wish you
“Merry Christmas!”
It seems so odd that we can spend
Trillions, more than any other nation
Yet, paying for coverage for every child
Gets no collaboration.
All kids want for Christmas
Is some help to pay
For a hospital stay
At $10,000 a day
All kids want for Christmas
Is chance to say,
“We didn’t go bankrupt for Christmas!”
It seems so odd that we demand
Paperwork for Medicaid determination
Gosh, oh gee, how much cheaper it would be
to have online verification?
All I want for Christmas
Is someone who cares
That kids get care
Everywhere
Thanks to each of you who helped a kid get care
I wish you all a Merry Christmas!
Hope you enjoyed the holiday fun. To read last year’s The Grinch who ALMOST stole Medicaid, click here
