I wonder what the costs totally for all 50 states would be for taxpayers.

New federal rules requiring proof of U.S. citizenship for Medicaid coverage will save Colorado $300,000, but cost $2.9 million to implement, according to state estimates. The state Department of Health Care Policy and Financing, which administers Medicaid, has asked for an additional $2.8 million in the coming year to help counties cover most of the additional cost. The state estimates that the new rules will result in 200 people losing Medicaid coverage in 2007 - and about 170 of them would be children.
