Low-income people in states without Medicaid expansion would get more affordable health insurance from 2026-2028.
This bill would make health insurance much more affordable for low-income individuals in states that have not expanded their Medicaid programs. It would do this by offering bigger tax credits to help pay for monthly premiums, greatly reducing out-of-pocket costs, and providing some extra benefits. These changes would be temporary, lasting from 2026 through 2028.
Today, low-income individuals in states that have not expanded Medicaid often struggle to afford health insurance, facing high premiums and out-of-pocket costs, or falling into a "coverage gap." After this bill, from 2026-2028, these individuals would receive much greater financial assistance, making health insurance nearly free, and would have more flexibility to enroll. States that have expanded Medicaid would also get a temporary increase in federal funding for their programs.
