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.

The #CBO estimates the Senate bill would increase the deficit by nearly $3.3T from 2025 to 2034, a nearly $1T increase over the #House-passed bill, which CBO has projected would add $2.4T to the debt over a decade.

The analysis also found that 11.8 million more Americans would become #uninsured by 2034 if the bill became #law, an increase over the scoring for the House-passed version of the bill, which predicts 10.9M more people would be without #health #coverage.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that, by imposing #Medicaid #WorkRequirements, the bill would eventually increase the #uninsured population by at least 8.6M. At first, #Republicans tried to defend this outcome on the grounds that it would affect only lazy people who refuse to work. This is clearly untrue, however.
