The budget bill proposes significant changes to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Health Insurance Marketplace, which is known as Georgia Access in our state.Proponents say these changes will cut costs, but they would also make… MORE >
Early this morning, the U.S. House passed a budget proposal that would make the largest cuts to Medicaid in the program’s 60-year history and the most sweeping change to U.S. health policy since the Affordable Care Act. Although framed as “program integrity” and cost-saving measures, these provisions would restrict health coverage, squeeze state funding, and… MORE >

We’ve made it to the end of the legislative session and through Sine Die (the last day of session). This year’s session ended abruptly with state senators adjourning before House members wrapped up.

When the American Health Care Act passed the U.S. House of Representatives earlier this month, the attention around the bill revolved around the rollback of protections for people with pre-existing conditions.

Today the U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed the American Health Care Act, a disappointment for health care consumers across Georgia. At a minimum, we know that the bill decimates Georgia’s Medicaid program, cutting more than $4 billion over 10 years, and would result in at least 560,000 more uninsured Georgians within a decade. Through… MORE >

Medicaid provides healthcare coverage to more than two million Georgians, including 1.3 million children across the state, and 500,000 seniors… MORE >
