If anyone is willing or able to help out, I'd be beyond grateful. If you can't, or would rather not, please send some good vibes my way. I sure could use them. A few of you have already reached out to help, for that... Thank you. In the meantime, I'm also working with a social worker from Franciscan Health, as well as the local United Way.

#DarrenSoto stated on October 13, 2025 in an X post:
#Florida will be the “hardest hit” state in the country if enhanced #AffordableCareAct subsidies expire.

Florida’s #insurance hikes and #uninsured rates will be among nation’s largest if #ACA credits expire

Florida is one of ‘hardest hit’ states if ACA credits expire

“Hardest hit” can mean many things, but the data shows Florida as one of the most affected states by the expiring enhanced ACA credits, because of the state’s high share of ACA enrollees who use them.

Some, scared off by the complexity of picking a #HealthInsurance policy & by the #PriceTag, tumble over the edge & go without #insurance, in a #health system where the rate for an ER visit can be thousands, if not tens of thousands, of dollars.

Today, an estimated 15% of 26-year-olds go #uninsured, which, acc/to an analysis by the health research group KFF, is the highest rate among Americans of any age.

The #Senate plan to slash #Medicaid & #ACA marketplace #funding could lead to nearly 12 million more people without insurance by 2034, the #CBO estimates. That in turn would harm the finances of #hospitals, #NursingHomes & #community #health centers—which would have to absorb more of the cost of treating #uninsured people—& may force them to reduce services & employees, as well as close facilities.

#Trump's #OneBigBeautifulBill cuts federal #spending on #Medicaid & #AffordableCareAct marketplaces by ~$1 trillion over a decade, acc/to the #nonpartisan #CBO, threatening the physical & financial #health of tens of millions of #Americans.

The bill, which the #Senate passed Tues, would reverse many of the health coverage gains of #Biden & #Obama, whose policies made it easier for millions of people to access #healthcare & reduced the US #uninsured rate to record lows.
