Johnson v. Montana

(Filed: Mar. 3, 2026)

Between April 2023 and January 2024, the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services kicked approximately 135,000 people—more than 10% of Montana's population—off Medicaid, leaving thousands of Montanans uninsured and burdened by debt. Of the Montanans on Medicaid, 57% were disenrolled during this period of time. Of this 57%, only 32% were actually deemed ineligible for the Medicaid program. The remaining 68% were disenrolled for "procedural" reasons.

Together with the Graybill Law Firm, we represent two individuals who seek monetary recompense on behalf of themselves and a proposed class of individuals for whom the State unlawfully denied Medicaid benefits due to its negligent administration of the program.
