Hospitals across the US are claiming that they will have to shut down or reduce services due to the Medicaid cuts taking effect next year. Is this an actual problem, or are they just making shit up to make Republicans look bad before the midterm elections?

just a few years ago in USA you had to pay cash for hospital stays

Yes, it's real. There are already hospitals in hicksville that have to close because they were reliant on government funding.
>>
>>544712543
Hospitals in the US charge like $25,000 per day for overnight stays plus extra for drugs or procedures; I doubt anyone was 'paying cash' for that.
>>
>>544711690
The hospitals will need to close rather than lower the value of their "services".
Impossible situation to resolve really. Too many industries and regulatory bodies tied up in healthcare to make an actual fix for skyhigh prices.

Most of the hospitals shutting down will be in rural areas. In other words, retarded subhuman trump voters getting what they deserve.
I do feel bad for good people that that didn't vote for him that will be affected, though. Sadly many innocent people suffer because of the evil and stupidity of the masses.

It's almost entirely rural hospitals, because retards continue to vote for shit that makes their situation worse, so long as some asshole grifter keeps gaslighting them about how they're actually winning. Every single one of the 10 states feeling the most economic distress, in fall 2026, is red.

Medicaid is a fraud vector and slush fund for doctors and the medical industry, more broadly.
And everyone in between has their hand out and skimming from the top, all up and down the line.
>>
>>544713639
You know you retards have another thing coming when illness hits you surprisingly for no reason at all despite depriving yourself of everything.

Moderation, faggot. And avoid chemicals. Don't eat raw mushrooms, you know simple things.

You're probably some fat mulleted hick that drinks snake blood thinking it'll make him immune to shit. Retard.

The biggest risk to medical establishments is over diagnosis from poor education and imported doctors, and WOMEN. Remove those and it's fine.

They are requiring that you spend 20 hours at work, or job seeking, or going to school, or volunteering your time to charity, or some combo of any or all of those activities.
And only if you aren't disabled, or retarded. And not if you are the care giver for someone disabled. And unless you care for kids under 13.
I'm sure there are more of these loopholes, but that is just what I remember.
>>
>>544711690
And somehow, people will say this is a bad thing. Hospitals will kill you if you give them the chance.
>>
Fat and old people should have to pay for their own health costs. There is no benefit to keeping them alive because they will never generate a return on the money wasted on them. Even if it """only""" costs me personally tens of thousands of dollars stolen from me in taxes to treat them I'd rather spend it on literally anything else.
>>
Medicaid is for niggers and poor people. Medicare is for old people
>>
>>544714166
That's not really the issue, though. It won't matter if you are still enrolled in the program if the program runs out of money. The Big Beautiful Bill specifically cut a trillion dollars from Medicaid. If that pool of money runs dry, it means no more reimbursement for services beyond a certain point in the fiscal year.
>>
>>544714640
Life is more important than finance you faggot jew. Life is meant for living, not sacrificing to make others rich and profit.

In addition to no one pointing out the ACA gave insurance companies tens of millions of new customers, we'll never discuss that a majority of hospitals are privately owned.
Why should hospitals get so much money?

The program is losing a chunk of funding, and so they have to scale it back.
What is so wrong with expecting those who are not disabled, or caring for young kids, or caring for disabled adults, to work, or look for work, or volunteer to charity, or go to school, or some combo of these, for 20 hours, in exchange for full medical coverage?

>>
>>544717723
Again, that's not really the issue. The claim is that the trillion-dollar cut is going to lead to parts of the medical system (like a bunch of hospitals and clinics) simply shutting down, meaning that nobody in certain areas will get 'full medical coverage' regardless of their insurance structures, because there won't be any medical facilities to use nearby.
>>

They must adjust their ways, to be able to exist without doing fraud to the system.
Or else they cannot exist.
What is the problem with that?

>MAGI Medicaid (Modified Adjusted Gross Income): This covers adults under age 65 (including ACA expansion Medicaid), parents, and pregnant individuals. There is no asset test for these programs. Eligibility is based entirely on your income, meaning your savings, home, and vehicles do not impact your qualification or need to be meticulously tracked for eligibility.

The Medicaid cuts are mostly a nothingburger. Yes, the BBB imposed Medicaid work requirements but the Trump administration put in all kinds of loopholes so that most people can keep their coverage. Here in California for example you only have to earn $580 every six months to qualify. That's a far cry from the original 80 hour per month work requirement. Any MAGI income counts so early retirees can just withdraw the $580 from their 401k or sell stocks or receive interest and dividends to get the free health insurance. Working poor typically earn far more than $580 every six months so they won't lose coverage either.
>>
>>544720688
Lol
>>
>>544711690
Nah it’s true. Medicaid only covers 50% to begin with. Luckily the only people who are directly impacted are niggers and miggers due to their plethora of chronic diseases from a life time of smoking, drinking, eating like shit, etc. Drop, drop, drop! Put an extra morgue for a one stop shop! I will NEVER work until those tax burden populations are culled.
>>
>>544713586
In California, about 1/3 of the population is on Medi-Cal (Medicaid). That's larger than the population of most states.
>>
>>544711690
Hopefully all the boomers, niggers, fatties, druggies and illegals will suffer because of this.
>>
>>544711690
if medicare and medicaid pay for so much, why does healthcare cost so much?

Could it be a legion of administrators and pharmas are making a lot of money by stealing from people and the based and redpilled democratic socialists did nothing to stop it?

Those are the specific populations it will impact. Edentulous backwoods trash, dirty niggers, ungrateful boomers, spics and spanics, etc. Every leech population will have no blood to suck. This is the one thing that I LOVE about this administration is their corruption has no allies. Everyone suffers but these groups will no doubt suffer the worst. White, healthy male zoomers will come out on top ready to lead the free world.

>>544720688
Calling US healthcare a free market is an absolute joke and any retard that thinks it's not in the complete control of the government is a complete idiot. The government likes the set up where elite can milk people for profit while with "insurance" while government calls all the shots but can be blames for the mistakes
>>
>>544719960
The 'problem' is that there will be towns and small cities which used to have a local hospital, and now they won't. Residents of those places will have to travel to larger cities for any sort of medical services.

The ER here constantly has like an eight hour wait. The waiting area looks like the third world country that it is. Meanwhile the urgent care clinic that is $40 if you don't have insurance is walk in anytime with zero wait. Illegal spics just go to the ER with their entire family and drain the fuck out of everything.
>>
>>544722377
Okay? And?
>>
how does medicaid work? You just go to the ER and government just takes care of everything?
>>
if we stopped letting a self-interested crooked racket control the approval of doctors and medical services maybe we could start fixing healthcare. they artificially restrict healthcare to keep it expensive so they can line their own pockets.

It increases everyones healthcare costs by giving "free" healthcare to the parasites of soceity at the expense of tax payers, these people will then go flood hospitals with common colds and diarrhea cramps racking up countless dollars worth of insurance money for the hospitals, they love Medicaid, they've looted our country through this shit
>>
>>544722546
You go to any doctor and any hospital and its 100% free. For any procedure. All medications are free. Its all free. Sometimes an individual doctor won't want to see you because they are paid less than someone with private insurance, but then they have to shuttle you to a doctor who accepts the state insurance. If you need glasses, you have to choose from a smaller number of frame styles.
>>
>>544722366
Don't forget that for most of the good goyim their health insurance is provided by their employer, creating a sort of indentured servant dynamic.
>>
>>544722546
If you have Medicaid it pays for everything but many doctors won't accept it because reimbursement rates are low. To get around that, people on Medicaid just go to the ER for everything and rack up huge bills that they never have to pay.
>>
>>544722721
>All medications are free
that's pretty stupid. Even in Canada we have to pay for our own medications but they are covered during hospital stays.
>>
>>544722723
Its provided THROUGH your employer. Not BY them. You still pay for it out of every paycheck.

Alot of these rural hopital closures are a result of migger hicks getting booted off Medicaid after voting for it. Miggers don't need hospitals anyway because they no longer have any free health insurance bennies. All is not lost though. They can just kill themselves when the time comes with one of their guns from their collection.

The problem with the program is fraud, waste, and abuse. Mist of this is done by the doctors and hospitals. Not to mention the social workers and others who get ineligible people signed up on it or look the other way if someone is scamming.

>>544725357
Dr. Oz gave the states the option to be very lax on the Medicaid work requirements. Of course California, New York and the other blue expansion states are taking full advantage of this. Meanwhile, it's the red expansion states that are cracking down and kicking their people off Medicaid. Go figure.
