New estimates from my @urbaninstitute colleagues showing that 4.8 million people will become uninsured if the enhanced premium tax credits are not extended. https://t.co/uAvtzE83VL

@haroldpollack Beautiful shot !!!

See how many people would lose coverage in your Congressional District through the link at the bottom of the page.

E&C committee was asked to cut $880 billion to make way for tax cuts. Latest paper from my
@urbaninstitute.bsky.social
colleagues on what would happen to insurance coverage if the 90 percent FMAP for the Medicaid expansion was eliminated. https://t.co/CLyXidUUzr

[Gideon Lukens @GidLukens]

Urban Institute: reducing the #Medicaid expansion match rate – as some GOP plans have proposed – would create a $44.3B funding shortfall for states in 2026. If states respond by dropping their expansions, up to 10.8 million people would become uninsured. https://t.co/L8ldERzUe3

⚠️This week may have been my last full update post on current infection numbers and trends.

Why?

The new administration may pause all public reports of federal health data from FDA, CDC, DHS, according to this article.

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

@maustermuhle DC residents and NPS needs to do better in my neighborhood….

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

Congress is considering extending the enhanced premium tax credits. According to my @urbaninstitute.bsky.social colleagues, households' spending on insurance premiums would surge if the EPTCs are not extended. https://t.co/Gc8AEDqADk

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

Cool new education data from my @urbaninstitute colleagues!

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

Not to mention that Medicaid pays forthe care of 6 out of 10 nursing home residents!

[Joan Alker @JoanAlker1]

As press reports continue to highlight the debate within GOP Congressional leaders as to whether they should block grant Medicaid to pay for their tax cuts, it is worth highlighting that there are 11.7 million seniors/PWD on Medicare + Medicare.

The so-called "Dual-eligibles".

[Joan Alker @JoanAlker1]

While the Republicans consider whether or not to block grant/cap Medicaid which would gut the program over time, the voters are not in favor of this idea.

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

@EmmaBethMcGinty @colleenlbarry So exciting, Congratulations !

[Larry Levitt @larry_levitt]

Most Medicaid enrollees who are not elderly or disabled are already working. The vast majority of those who aren't are not working due to illness, caregiving responsibilities, or school.

Important piece about "high-risk pools" and the implications of using them in the Marketplace by @khemp64 at @RWJF

[Sabrina Corlette @SabrinaCorlette]

Health insurance "high risk pools" are back in the news. @RWJF's @khemp64 and Wakely's Michael Cohen are out with a super timely and helpful analysis of how such a change would impact insurance markets: https://t.co/jiJU5mAssa

[Acyn @Acyn]

Rampell: I'm sorry I can't get past that. Like locking up all of the enemies, whether they're journalists or otherwise, that matters. I don't think the voters get a say on whether the first amendment still exists.

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

Very excited to see this new state-by-state series on access to reproductive health post-Dobbs by my colleagues in the Health Policy Center @urbaninstitute

[Urban Institute @urbaninstitute]

How is reproductive #healthcare changing post-Dobbs?

In a new series of #research findings from Urban, learn more about abortion access and #policies in key states. https://t.co/VtNrROi45W

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

@charles_gaba @urbaninstitute Absolutely related!

[Lisa Dubay @LDubay]

A little brief I wrote at ASPE many moons ago is suddenly relevant now! Who would be denied coverage if ACA protections for pre-existing conditions were removed? @urbaninstitute https://t.co/8drGeeejl1
