Medicaid Problems

Sep 16, 2024

Across the country, about 25 million sick and disabled people lost Medicaid health insurance since the COVID benefit expansion ended.

In 2020, due to COVID, there was a bi-partisan decision. Anyone getting Medicaid would keep it. THAT ended last year. One study showed 69% of the 25 million who lost coverage ARE ELIGIBLE. Most lost due to “procedural problems.”

In this country, the wealthiest country in the world, it is a disgrace that so many people no longer have health insurance!
