Healthcare Affordability Plummeting
Description
Healthcare affordability is crumbling fast—just 49% of Americans can now afford doctor visits and prescriptions, a steep drop from over 60% two years ago. Rising premiums after ACA subsidies expired in early 2026 have pushed millions into coverage limbo, with ACA enrollment plummeting by over a million in January alone. Experts warn nearly five million fewer people may enroll this year. Meanwhile, Trump’s “Great Healthcare Plan” and TrumpRx promise cheaper care but offer little real relief as surveys confirm healthcare costs are crushing households nationwide.
