About 70% of people who have lost coverage so far in the Medicaid unwinding did so because of missing or incomplete paperwork.
This week, @onceuponA tells us why that’s a problem for everyone, whether they should still be eligible or not.

This week we tackled a policy so wonky that we worried we’d lose @dmgorenstein in the weeds of Washington DC forever.
So we built him a special ship we’re calling … the Jargonaut!
Don’t miss its maiden voyage! 🚀

🚨 Big news today with a federal judge in Texas striking down part of the Affordable Care Act that requires insurers to cover preventive care (like cancer screenings) for free. A quick thread 🧵 with a few of our stories that provide more context on this major ruling...
There was a huge health care ruling out of Texas today.
No, not the abortion pill one.
One that threatens access to no-cost mammograms, colonoscopies and mental health screenings for nearly 168 million people.

Are you interested in writing for @StatNews’ First Opinion department? It’s my second week on the job, and I wanted to share some thoughts about what I’m looking for.

Really interesting article on patients' feelings on AI in health care. I'm starting to report on this for @tradeoffspod (specifically re: racial bias), so if you're a researcher or provider in this space, I'd love to talk. RTs appreciated, and DMs open!

Wondering what the 71 pages of guidance @CMSGov just released are about?
Senior producer @leslie_walker_ has you covered with a special explainer on the guidance and what it means for Medicare’s 64 million beneficiaries.

We’re kicking off 2023 by examining three health policy issues we expect to dominate the year: new laws restricting abortion care, behind-the-scenes action on prescription drugs and millions losing Medicaid coverage.

Yo @Delta and @JFKairport… I get it. There are weather issues, but the service the past 36 hours has been so horrific. Lost bags from gate check, refusal to provide vouchers, etc. This is a terrible way to treat people and you will lose costumers.
