A recent survey found that nearly a quarter of adults disenrolled from Medicaid are now uninsured, with many struggling to retain coverage after pandemic-era protections expired. The survey showed that almost half of those who lost coverage ended up signing back up weeks or months later. Many found other coverage options, but going without insurance even briefly can lead to delays in seeking care and financial risk. The Medicaid unwinding process, where states reassess eligibility for millions of enrollees, has led to challenges in renewal processes and disruptions in coverage. The survey highlights the impact on adults and the need for better communication and support from states.
