The new report estimates that coverage losses could lead to delayed care, increased hospitalizations and more deaths. Its findings echo a study published in June.
The Medicaid cuts in Donald Trump’s domestic policy bill could result in more than 1,000 additional deaths every year, according to a report published Wednesday in JAMA Health Forum.
The cuts could also lead to nearly 100,000 more hospitalizations each year, the report found, and around 1.6 million people may delay seeking care.
The projections are at odds with comments made by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who downplayed the bill’s impact during an interview with Fox Business Network’s Larry Kudlow on Monday.
Bruh. That’s the fucking point.
This is by design
258,000,000 deaths. Please spread it.
They intend to reduce the population to 100,000,000 people. That’s the why. The how? It’s everything. Remove health service. Remove life saving practices. Spread disease, famine, incite political violence.
Everyone needs to know.
Not to mention FEMA getting the boot right as climate change is really starting to get spicy
Connect the dots. The biggest government spending is Social Security, after the military of course. What’s the solution? Kill old people, which most elderly are on Medicaid. You could even argue that covid was targeting the elderly as well. If you wanna dip into conspiracy.
Medicaid is poor people. Medicare is old. Both of them are on the chopping block, but this article is about poor people
Medicare doesn’t cover long-term care. When the elderly drain their savings on a nursing home that’s when Medicaid kicks in.
Ahhh, double fucked. The Republican way.
That’s all?
Agreed–after seeing so many people die from covid and get fuck-all response from the government, it’s clear that thousands of deaths isn’t even gonna move the needle. This is bad
They needed to do a report to figure out taking medical care away would cause deaths?
I bet this is going to be read in the crime statistics.
