Source: The state-by-state numbers were created by combining estimates from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office on the national total number of people who would lose insurance by 2034 with a range of state-level data on the number of people enrolled in Affordable Care Act plans, the total number of Medicaid enrollees in each state, and early analyses of how some Medicaid cuts in the bill would impact each state. The JEC – Minority may issue updated estimates based on changes to the bill or updated analyses of its impacts. |
