More than 10 million Americans may lose Medicaid coverage when new work requirements kick-in on January 1. This is a direct result of Congress’ One Big Bill and the largest healthcare cuts in American history. on.mktw.net/46U3PPc
marketwatch.com
Millions will lose Medicaid once new work rules kick in. These groups will be hit the hardest.
The changes will cut about $1 trillion from federal Medicaid spending over 10 years.

Your health insurance bills are about to go up
