The conservative Heritage Foundation has tracked 15 cases of voter fraud in Colorado in a decade of mail-in balloting. The two most prominent cases were a former GOP chair and a man suspected of killing his wife who admitted casting her ballot for Trump. #copolitics

For a single person in the continental US in a state with expanded Medicaid, the Medicaid eligibility threshold will increase to $20,782 in annual income, up $662 from 2023.
2024 federal poverty guidelines have been published: healthinsurance.org/glossary… The new numbers will start to be used for Medicaid eligibility starting mostly in March or April, depending on the state. (but not until November for premium subsidies).

Importing drugs from Canada is a gimmick. Drug manufacturing isn't cheaper. It's just that Canada and every other high-income country limits prices.
But, it's a gimmick with bipartisan appeal since it seems illogical that we pay more for the same drugs.

An updated, and truly damning, MedPAC slide: Medicare Advantage plans are being overpaid by tens of billions of taxpayer dollars *every year* by both attracting healthier, lower-cost people and coding the hell out of everyone who enrolls.

Really gross. I want people to buy insurance, but she's doing what makes insurance coverage far more expensive, but she, unlike almost all people, can do it because she's famous and can crowd source the catastrophe.

Here’s hoping you follow up tomorrow with information about ACA, the open enrollment happening until at least Jan 15 in 49 states and how pre existing conditions are no longer an issue for ACA compliant policies.
Jay Norris retweeted
Understand ACA?
I am very sorry Mary Lou Retton is ill.
However, an American icon saying fun stuff like “I can’t afford it” and “pre-existing conditions” on the Today Show wasn’t much fun to watch.
Jay Norris retweeted
Thought the segment was shameful. A millionaire living in a mansion asking people who can’t afford it to donate to her medical bills because she wouldn’t buy health insurance. And, I don’t want to hear how she “couldn’t” afford it
Jay Norris retweeted
Nope. I am a huge fan of both @hodakotb and @TODAYshow but they totally missed 5 seconds of air time this morning that could have helped millions of uninsured...especially in Texas.
Jay Norris retweeted
Just watched the clip. It's infuriating. Glad she has coverage now, but there is NO WAY that nobody has explained to her that it's been a decade since pre-existing conditions were an obstacle to coverage. And unless her income was < poverty, affordability wasn't an excuse either.
Jay Norris retweeted
Fact check: Mary Lou Retton's pre-existing conditions would not make her ineligible for health insurance or increase her premium. That's been prohibited under Obamacare since 2014.
Mary Lou Retton opens up about why she didn't have health insurance in an exclusive interview with Hoda Kotb. today.com/health/womens-heal…
