Phoenix, AZ ~ Phoenix, AZ - In a continued effort to raise awareness about the potential consequences of cutting Medicaid funding, Governor Katie Hobbs visited Flagstaff Medical Center today. The visit was documented by KAFF News and members of the press were able to access pool footage.
During her time at Northern Arizona Healthcare's Flagstaff campus, Governor Hobbs toured the facility and met with local leaders, doctors, and nurses. The discussion focused on the critical impact that proposed Medicaid cuts could have on the lives of Arizonans.
Doctors and nurses emphasized that reducing Medicaid funding would not only jeopardize lives but also devastate communities. If these cuts were to move forward in Washington, hundreds of thousands of Arizonans could lose their healthcare coverage and hospitals across the state may be forced to shut down.

Holt, MN, RN PPCNP-BC pediatric nurse practitioner at Northern Arizona Healthcare's Children's Health Center.
Materials from the visit including B-roll footage and soundbites are available for access. This visit serves as another step in Governor Hobbs' ongoing efforts to shed light on the potential consequences of cutting Medicaid funding.
