Wise policy solutions could remedy this #ruralhealth #txlege

[Eli Saslow @elisaslow]

Doctors are disappearing from rural America at record rates. Hundreds of counties now have no doctor. Many more are down to just one, like Ed Garner in Texas, who takes care of an area larger in size than the state of Maryland: https://t.co/IAQP0GRg62

Texas has the highest uninsured rate in the US and high property taxes that pay for charity care locally. Time to expand #Medicaid and relieve the tax burden #health @NathanForTexas @TX_Legislature https://t.co/oJiyhBk3h3

"Because of this paperwork burden, more than 4,000 Texas kids lose coverage each month...It's time to step up, Texas," say EHF's @elenamarks & @StDavidsFDN's Earl Maxwell.

It's much more than #Marketplace plans and #Medicaid expansion that this ruling would undo - the language authorizing Section 1332 waivers would be repealed, as would the program that closes the 'donut hole' for seniors in #Medicare Part D.

[Alliance of Community Health Plans (ACHP) @_ACHP]

ACHP & @safetynetplans have filed an amicus brief in Texas v United States highlighting the harm our members will suffer if the decision to strike the entire #ACA is upheld. The ruling imperils coverage for more than 20 million Americans—especially those w/ preexisting conditions

BREAKING NEWS: "Baseball style" arbitration to replace mediation in disputed medical bills in Texas. Bi-partisan, House/Senate compromise reached to keep patients out of middle in state with one of worst records in nation for surprise medical bills. This could be big.

The University of Houston will open a safety-net health clinic for low-income people in the area Monday, a key initial component of its planned medical school. https://t.co/x5BSqzKRqa via @HoustonChron

Omg. This should never happen! Continuous eligibility saves money and helps kids stay healthy and manage conditions that need care.

BREAKING: Judge Boasberg has ruled that both Arkansas and Kentucky work reporting requirement waivers are unlawful. Great news for those who rely on Medicaid for their health insurance!!!!!!!!

[KFF Health News @KFFHealthNews]

The @urbaninstitute estimates full repeal would result in nearly 20 million more uninsured Americans. via @jrovner #ACA https://t.co/vLB4lOUNNs

This would cause chaos throughout our entire health care system — really bad for Texas, bad for all of our nation #txlege #HealthCare
