Devastating Earthquakes Shake Venezuela; What’s Driving a Drop in Medicaid and ACA Enrollment?

Episode 280 Published 5 days, 10 hours ago
Description

Venezuela’s strongest earthquakes in more than a century devastated the northern part of the country and killed hundreds of people. NBC News contributor Ana Vanessa Herrero shares her experience on the ground in Caracas as the death toll is expected to keep rising. Plus, a new report shows that 5 million people lost their healthcare coverage in the last 12 months because of Medicaid cuts in President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” and the expiration of enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies. NBC News health and medical reporter Berkeley Lovelace Jr. breaks down the impact for those individuals – and why all of us could ultimately be affected.
