Access to affordable healthcare is a fundamental right that should be available to all individuals, regardless of their income level. However, the current income limits set by Medicaid often leave many hardworking Americans without access to the vital medical services they need. We believe it is time to raise these income limits in order to create a healthier future for all.

Medicaid plays a crucial role in providing healthcare coverage for low-income individuals and families across the United States. However, the eligibility criteria are often restrictive and fail to account for rising costs of living and healthcare expenses. By increasing the income limits, we can ensure that more people have access to essential medical care without facing financial hardships.

According to recent studies conducted by reputable organizations such as KFFnearly 27 million of uninsured individuals fall within the gap created by current Medicaid income limits. This means that thousands of hardworking Americans are left without any form of affordable healthcare coverage simply because their incomes exceed these outdated thresholds.

Furthermore, research has shown that lack of access to adequate healthcare leads to delayed diagnoses, untreated conditions, and ultimately poorer health outcomes.By raising Medicaid income limits, we can help prevent these negative consequences and promote overall well-being within our communities.

It is important not only from a humanitarian perspective but also from an economic standpoint. When individuals cannot afford necessary medical treatments or preventive care due to limited incomes, they often end up seeking emergency services or delaying treatment until conditions worsen significantly. This results in higher costs for both patients and taxpayers alike.By expanding Medicaid eligibility through increased income limits, we can reduce these avoidable expenses while ensuring everyone has timely access to appropriate care.

We urge policymakers at both state and federal levels responsible for setting Medicaid regulations and guidelines to take immediate action towards raising the income limits. It is time we acknowledge that the current limits are insufficient and fail to address the growing healthcare needs of our society.

By signing this petition, you are standing up for a fairer healthcare system that prioritizes the well-being of all individuals, regardless of their income. Together, let's advocate for higher Medicaid income limits and pave the way towards a healthier future for everyone.

as most people are aware when the public health emergency ended states were allowed to begin their yearly redeterminations of eligibility for Medicaid.Our household Grosses approximately $44,000 thousand dollars a year. Keep in mind that GROSS IS BEFORE TAXES. States use GROSS INCOME to determine eligibility when it should be your NET TAKE HOME PAY. Because of how they do it now they feel that our house hold can afford to pay $3,620 PER MONTH! In medical bills for our son who’s pictured above before medicaid would pay. THIS IS SICK!!
