some red? I don’t understand. Do you think the expanded medicaid is a cure all? Its not universal healthcare it just reduces the red from where you see it in the intense red areas.
More than a dozen? Something is seriously wrong in these states and I want to know why Medicaid expansion didn’t fix it. There’s an explaination, don’t just handwave it away.
Oklahoma expanded Medicaid in 2020. Most of these states expended it over a decade ago. A lot of debt buildup occurred in that time. Not sure about the other indebted states but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were similar
Now that you reduced it to two outliers fair enough. Apparently in only helps in something like 96% of cases. To repeat. Its not a cure all. Just an improvment.
🙄 I just didn’t feel like retyping. Look at North Carolina and Nevada. They’re so bad!
I got an answer for Missouri by the way, it’s because the Republican governor won’t implement the Medicaid expansion that the people vote for - that’s the kind of answer I want. Stop handwaving the problem and actually critically engage with it.
Its not handwaving. Your just asking for things way outside of what the data shows. Yeah could be implementation as there are better and worse ways to do it, but it could also be what the rest of the states healthcare system is like. North carolina im not so sure is super red. Maybe my map knowledge is off but nevada looks a bit regional. Its possible gambling and general debt could be effecting it. It could be all sorts of things. This picturejust shows that in general expanding medicaid seems to correlate with less medical debt.

A lot of red! Look at Oklahoma! Or Missouri!
California is some red. One red county, fine.

Oklahoma’s expansion just took effect this year. Source: I FINALLY qualified.

Oh fk the Medicaid expansion didn’t come with debt relief, of course, I guess I forgot what country this is 😒
