In general, I think that ending Medicaid is a good idea...however, without eliminating EMTALA, ending Medicaid will only result in these people showing up in Emergency Rooms as “uninsured” people entitled to the same care that Medicaid used to reimburse for...driving hospitals further into the red as they are forced by federal law to treat these folks for free.

Beware the law of unintended consequence.
