So if Medicaid is cut, then you will have to pay higher premiums because hospitals still have to take care of these patients. The hospitals will drive up costs across the board to make up the lost revenue from Medicaid. Your insurance will pay that...which means you will pay more. The cost of our taxes on it is far less than what our insurance premiums will end up being.
some hospitals will shut down and even people with insurance can't get hospital visits including emergencies.
