Health Care Cuts Will Impact Asthma Care

UNITED STATES, JUL 08 – Nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts will cause 12 million to lose coverage and risk closure for 300 rural hospitals, experts warn of widespread health care impact.

  • On July 4, President Donald Trump enacted the budget reconciliation bill, which includes cuts to Medicaid totaling at least $1 trillion and impacts hospitals across the country.
  • Rural hospitals, already operating on thin margins and facing closures from 2017 to 2024, are threatened by these cuts that could accelerate service reductions and closures.
  • Hospitals like Ocean Beach Health in Washington, reliant on Medicaid for 40% of income, face severe financial strain despite some federal relief funds distributed this year.
  • Cassie Sauer, leading the Washington State Hospital Association, warned that hospitals could face serious challenges with payroll due to the impacts of the new legislation.
  • The proposed cuts could result in millions of Americans losing access to health insurance and threaten the survival of rural hospitals, prompting urgent calls for state and federal officials to close funding gaps and safeguard healthcare availability.
