When the #ACA was voted into #law in 2010, its so-called dependent coverage expansion was immediately effective, guaranteeing #HealthInsurance to millions of young Americans up to age 26 who would otherwise have not had coverage.

But for years, #Republicans have whittled away at the infrastructure of the original law. Long gone is the requirement to buy #insurance.

Plans sold in the online #insurance marketplaces have no stringent quality standards. #Costs keep rising, & #eligibility requirements & subsidies are a moving target.

The erosion of the #law has now created an “insurance cliff” for Americans who are turning 26 & don’t have a #job that provides #medical coverage.

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.
