My @GtownCHIR colleagues are out today with a brand-new @commonwealthfnd report - it examines the diverse efforts of states to improve health care affordability, and the impact of failing to extend enhanced tax credits: https://t.co/4jIhlE1xN1 @jgiovannelli @SaraCollins_

[Sabrina Corlette @SabrinaCorlette]

With J.D. Vance calling to replace the ACA's pre-existing condition protections with high risk pools, @GtownCHIR thought it worth reminding folks how these insurance pools worked - or, more often, didn't work - for people, prior to the ACA. https://t.co/yfX5ndQcgk

Enhanced premium tax credits for health insurance are scheduled to expire by the end of 2025, but Congress needs to act a lot sooner than that. @jasonlevitis Claire O'Brien and I explain why for @Health_Affairs: https://t.co/PgMdqragmj @GtownCHIR @urbaninstitute

[Health Affairs @Health_Affairs]

In their new Forefront article, @jasonlevitis, @SabrinaCorlette, and Claire O'Brien from @urbaninstitute and @GtownCHIR discuss how Congress’s real deadline to avert 2026 Marketplace premium increases and coverage losses is in the spring of 2025. https://t.co/cOREdwreWS

Several states have established auto-enrollment programs to ease transitions from Medicaid to Marketplace & help people stay covered. Now, hot off the presses - @GtownCHIR @CHCFNews evaluation of California's program. https://t.co/BiHlykqi0Y
