A new KFF analysis of insurer rate filings shows ACA Marketplace premiums are likely to rise again in 2027 — the second straight year of double-digit increases. www.healthsystemtracker.org/brief/how-mu...

A key mission of @kff.org public opinion work is to amplify the voices of the people directly impacted by healthy policy debates. Today we release a great example of this- a survey of ACA Marketplace Enrollees www.kff.org/public-opini...

Our new KFF Follow-up Survey of Marketplace Enrollees finds that one in ten 2025 Marketplace enrollees are now uninsured, and those who still have Marketplace coverage are facing higher health care costs and affordability challenges. www.kff.org/public-opini...

Health care costs remain an ever-present concern - see findings from the latest KFF Health Tracking Poll: www.kff.org/public-opini...

Our latest poll looking at how ACA Marketplace enrollees may deal with the increased premiums if the enhanced tax credits expire at the end of this year.

Our latest KFF poll finds 50% of the public say they trust the CDC a great deal or a fair amount to provide reliable information on vaccines. Down from 63% in September 2023. www.kff.org/public-opini...

KFF and ESPN just jointly released an in-depth polling and reporting project looking at health and financial challenges facing former NFL players, who are much more likely to report a wide array of health issues compared to men their age. kff.org/kff-espn-survey-of-nfl-players

New KFF-ESPN poll of 1988 NFL players - As a football fan, it was such a privilege to work on this project. It really deepened my appreciation for the players and the toll it takes on them to play a game they love and entertain us fans. on.kff.org/3V2Q1Md

Our poll finds most of the public initially supports the Medicaid work requirements provision of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” but attitudes can shift dramatically when presented with information related to its impact — including across partisans. on.kff.org/3Zywm9K

Our latest poll finds that about two-thirds of the public views the “Big Beautiful Bill” unfavorably www.kff.org/medicaid/pol...

Our latest poll shows about three-quarters of the public oppose major federal funding cuts to Medicaid - and even among MAGA supporters, half oppose major funding cuts to Medicaid. www.kff.org/medicaid/pol...

Our latest KFF Tracking Poll on Heath Information and Trust looks at attitudes towards the current measles outbreak and at three false statements related to measles that are currently circulating. www.kff.org/health-infor...

With reports that Republicans in Congress are considering cutting the ACA's Medicaid expansion, here's our analysis of what that would mean on a state by state basis. 20 million people are covered under the expansion. www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...

Will we learn from Dr. Oz's confirmation hearing what the Trump Administration has in mind for Medicare's future? What does the future hold for beneficiaries, providers, plans & spending? www.kff.org/policy-watch... Will the Trump Administration Fast Track the Privatization of Medicare | KFF

As the Trump Administration withdraws the nomination of Dr. David Weldon to head the CDC, new KFF poll finds Republican trust in the agency to provide reliable information on bird flu is low (58% say they trust the agency "not much" or "not at all") www.kff.org/health-infor...

Five years later. Awesome @upshot.nytimes.com charts show how Covid changed everything. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

With news that Social Security is implementing major workforce reductions, it's worth noting that the agency plays a big role in helping people enroll in Medicare by processing applications for Part A and B, as well as for the Part D drug benefit's extra help program. www.kff.org/faqs/medicar...

@kff.org conducted focus groups with Medicaid enrollees who voted for Pres Trump and VP Harris. Despite differences in who they voted for in Nov 2024, participants had consistently favorable experiences with Medicaid and concerns with potential cuts to the program. www.kff.org/medicaid/rep...

Ahead of debate about a budget resolution that could mean big cuts for #Medicaid, see @kff.org new brief providing an overview of federal spending for health programs and services. www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...

A few thoughts on the need for high quality non-governmental survey data: The last few weeks saw vital public data from the Census and other government surveys being taken offline. These surveys like the ACS, CPS, NHIS, and BRFSS are incredibly valuable for researchers and policymakers. (1/7)

#Medicaid covers 1 in 3 people with disabilities. The majority do not receive SSI so come on to the program through other pathways including the ACA expansion. www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...

@KFF polling shows that across political parties people have favorable views of Medicaid, almost half say the federal government does not spend enough on the program and more than 7 in 10 are worried that enrollees will not get the same level of benefits in the future. www.kff.org/health-costs...

Latest KFF Tracking Poll on Health Information and Trust finds that trust in government health agencies continues to decline. www.kff.org/health-infor...

Medicaid provides health coverage to 1 in 5 low-income Americans. This year, significant policy shifts — like federal funding cuts and implementing work requirements — could reshape the program. Learn more:

Great to see KFF on @bsky.app they are a great resource for info on healthcare. Definitely worth a follow

My take on the U.S. withdrawal from WHO.

New: Trump officials have paused all external communications at health agencies like CDC, FDA, NIH. No health alerts and the famed MMWRs; no updates to key websites or social media posts. And no indication how long the pause will last. With @rachelroubein.bsky.social + Lena Sun.
