edwardspeter+FollowMedicaid Cuts Could Hit Harder Than You ThinkCongress is eyeing big Medicaid cuts, and it’s not just numbers on a spreadsheet—real families and doctors could feel the pain. Black and Latino doctors, who already make up a small slice of U.S. physicians, are more likely to serve Medicaid patients. If funding drops, clinics could close, kids could lose coverage, and health gaps could get even wider. Imagine ERs packed and fewer docs who understand your culture or language. This isn’t just about insurance—it’s about entire communities losing their lifeline. #MedicaidCuts #HealthEquity #HealthcareAccess #CommunityCare #Health150107Share
Douglas Robinson+FollowWhy Maternal Care in the US Is So BrokenYou’d think having a baby in the US would be safe, but our maternal mortality rates are shockingly high—worse than most other rich countries. The wild part? Over 80% of these deaths are preventable! The biggest issues: lack of access to care, mental health support, and insurance (especially after birth). Plus, Black women are hit hardest due to bias in the system. Real talk: fixing this means better access, more empathy, and actually listening to moms. It’s wild how much needs to change! #MaternalHealth #HealthcareAccess #SupportMoms #EndMaternalMortality #ListenToMoms40Share
Douglas Robinson+FollowMedicaid Cuts Could Hit Harder Than You ThinkCongress is talking about major Medicaid cuts, and it’s not just numbers on a spreadsheet—real families and their doctors could feel the pain. Black and Latino doctors are way more likely to treat Medicaid patients, so their clinics (and the communities they serve) would get hit the hardest. Think: less access to care, more ER visits, and bigger health gaps. One doctor said losing Medicaid is like losing a lifeline for entire families. The ripple effect? It could impact everyone, even those with private insurance. #Medicaid #HealthcareAccess #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #PolicyMatters #Health172Share
edwardspeter+FollowMedicaid Cuts = Major Community ImpactMedicaid cuts aren’t just numbers—they hit real families, especially in Black and Latino communities. Docs who look like their patients and speak their language are already rare, and these cuts could force clinics to close or scale back. That means less access to care, more ER visits, and even more health disparities. It’s not just about insurance—it’s about trust, prevention, and keeping whole communities healthy. The ripple effect? Everyone feels it, not just Medicaid patients. #MedicaidMatters #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #HealthcareAccess #Health3235Share
james60+FollowRural Moms Facing Fewer Birth Options?Rural hospitals might stop offering labor and delivery care, which means expectant moms could have to travel even farther for help. A new study says this could make things riskier for moms and babies in small towns. This is a big deal for anyone who cares about healthcare access! #RuralHealth #MaternalCare #HealthcareAccess #WomensHealth #Health50Share

Black and Latino doctors, who already make up a small slice of U.S. physicians, are way more likely to treat Medicaid patients. If these cuts go through, clinics serving communities of color could lose funding, making it even harder for people to get care. Imagine more ER visits, fewer checkups, and a bigger health gap.

Terry Brown+FollowMedicaid Cuts Could Hit Harder Than You ThinkJust found out Medicaid cuts could seriously hurt Black and Latino doctors and their patients. These docs are already more likely to serve Medicaid patients, and losing funding means fewer clinics, less preventive care, and even longer ER waits for everyone. One LA doctor said Medicaid isn’t just insurance—it’s a lifeline. If these cuts go through, it could widen health gaps and make it way harder for families to get the care they need. Wild how one policy change can ripple through whole communities! #Medicaid #HealthcareAccess #HealthEquity #CommunityCare #PolicyImpact #Health4310Share
