State-level attrition in 2Q26 remains well below redetermination peaks,
though IN & CA remain on our watch list in the quarter. Several states have
rolled out policies impacting the Medicaid population either in the form
of tightening eligibility (i.e., IN, CA, D.C.) or raising procedure-specific prior
auth (PA), but we are seeing notable enrollment declines in 2Q26 in only 2
of those states, IN & CA.
