Keeping NC Medicaid Strong

NCHA urges the rejection of the Senate’s proposed #Medicaid cuts. A better way is the House bill protecting provider taxes and SDPs that support #NC Medicaid. We are grateful to @senthomtillis and NC congressional delegation for standing up for hospitals. tinyurl.com/mw28m3zr

Medicaid expansion has been tremendously positive for North Carolina. It has genuinely saved lives. But now, the US Senate is rushing to pass a bill that would kill Medicaid expansion in North Carolina. This is about people’s lives, not politics. #ncpol #ncga

Proposed cuts to Medicaid in the “one big, beautiful bill” could jeopardize care for more than 600,000 people in North Carolina, including 6-year-old Kennedy Beaver, who relies on the program for treatment of a rare genetic condition.

While much of the debate about “One Big Beautiful Bill” focuses on cuts to Medicaid, more than 1 million North Carolinians who buy private health insurance through the ACA would pay more. By @saraisraelsen for @TheAssemblyNC. #ncpol theassemblync.com/politics/legis…

670,000+ North Carolinians gained coverage through Medicaid expansion—but a new federal bill could wipe it out. The “One Big Beautiful Bill” creates an unfunded mandate that NC can’t afford. #ProtectNCMedicaid 🔗northcarolinahealthnews.org/2025/06/27/bil…

Congress is considering proposals that could take health coverage away from 650,000+ working North Carolinians overnight. When employees are uninsured, they miss more work, are less productive, and employers pay more. Medicaid Strengthens NC. Visit Medicaid.nc.gov.

Proposed cuts to Medicaid would crush small and rural hospitals and make it harder for people to get the care they need. North Carolina can’t afford this.

We can expect large Medicaid cuts to be disruptive to the small business sector of the economy because 1/3 of all Medicaid enrollees are connected to small businesses as our new report finds. Thanks to partners @SmlBizMajority ccf.georgetown.edu/2025/06/26/med…

Thanks @NCRuralCenter for this progress report on Medicaid expansion in North Carolina's rural communities! The data shows that a higher percentage of rural county residents have been enrolled in Medicaid expansion than in suburban and urban counties.
