The $32 Billion Healthcare Cliff

When tax credits disappear, patients can’t afford insurance premiums that suddenly spike. Uninsured patients mean unpaid medical bills for hospitals. This domino effect creates a financial crisis that ripples through entire healthcare systems. Rural hospitals, already operating on thin margins, face the greatest risk of closure or service reduction.

Real Impact on Your Healthcare Access

Hospital revenue losses translate directly to reduced services, longer emergency room waits, and potential facility closures. Medical providers may be forced to cut staff or limit specialty services. In real cases, communities have lost their only hospital when financial pressures became unsustainable. Your wellness and access to timely medical care depend on these institutions remaining financially viable.
