flag Rising premiums and lost ACA subsidies push some Americans to go uninsured, risking huge medical bills.

flag Rising health insurance premiums and expired ACA subsidies are prompting some Americans to consider paying for medical care out of pocket. flag While cash prices at some hospitals offer discounts for routine services like X-rays, uninsured patients lose access to negotiated rates, out-of-pocket caps, preventive care, and emergency coverage. flag Unexpected or serious medical needs can result in massive bills, and enrollment in insurance after an emergency is often impossible. flag Experts warn that skipping insurance exposes individuals to significant financial risk, despite potential short-term savings, and recommend exploring charity care or federally qualified health centers as safer alternatives.
