Low-income individuals losing Medicaid coverage and cannot afford alternative health insurance

Current solutions like ACA marketplace plans remain unaffordable even with subsidies for this population, leaving them uninsured and vulnerable to medical bankruptcy. The gap between Medicaid loss and marketplace affordability creates a coverage crisis with no viable path to insurance.
