New research suggests that Black and Hispanic citizens are disproportionately affected by the Medicaid disenrollments.
The end of the Medicaid scheme has hit more Black and Hispanic Americans, a new study found.During the COVID-19 pandemic, health insurance coverage improved significantly for millions of Americans through Medicaid enrollment.However, as the emergency ended in April 2023, around 10 million people lost their Medicaid coverage as states began re-evaluating eligibility.Notably, three-quarters of these disenrollments occurred due to procedural issues rather than ineligibility.
To overcome this, they used data that was publicly available from the U.S. Census Bureau's Household Pulse Survey, conducted between March 29 and October 2, 2023, to estimate adult Medicaid disenrollment by race and ethnicity during the Medicaid unwinding period.
