Changes to the Affordable Care Act and Medicaid enacted by congressional Republicans are beginning to impact coverage, leading to an election-year dispute. Approximately 1.2 million fewer individuals are enrolled in ACA coverage compared to the previous year, with projections indicating a further 17% to 26% decrease in enrollment. Nebraska has become the first state to implement work requirements for Medicaid recipients who joined through ACA expansion, a move advocates fear will cause significant coverage losses due to administrative hurdles.
