I was wondering what the evil was that got ahold of her that was mentioned. Honestly my first thought was that she was gay but this makes a lot more sense.

Edit: too late bc I've been down voted to hell but I didn't say I agreed. I'm gay. But religious fanatics aren't often known to be accepting.

It means a lot of people make too much money to be on Medicaid but they don't know it because eligibility has been frozen since 2020 in order to make sure as many people as possible had coverage in case they got really sick with covid. And probably sometime in 2023 everyone nationwide will have to prove their current income to remain on Medicaid. BUT for most who don't qualify, they can get nearly free plans on the State Health Exchange.

If you haven't bounced in and out of Medicaid eligibility before, it's less likely this will affect you. Probably a lot of those affected will be women who qualified due to pregnancy since the limits are higher.

(Sorry if I'm scaring you with this, that's not my intent I just think it's terrible that most people don't know bc it's a lot of people affected).

The biggest thing you'll have to keep in mind is there's been a freeze on reviewing Medicaid eligibility since covid. It will likely expire in 2023. Many millions of people will lose coverage. If you've had income changes in the last few years this could affect you (in CA or PA). I would check this before you cancel your current insurance, even a few more months would be better than none. However if you don't qualify for Medicaid anymore, definitely sign up for the state's health insurance exchange. Won't be free most likely but will be heavily discounted.
