Donald Jones DDS+FollowOhio’s Medicaid cuts: What’s next for health care?Over 600,000 Ohioans have lost Medicaid coverage in just two years, shaking up access to health care for families across the state. This isn’t just a number—many folks now face tough choices about how to pay for doctor visits, prescriptions, or emergencies. Some may find new insurance through work, but others could be left uninsured, especially in rural areas where hospitals are already struggling. With more changes coming to Medicaid, people are worried about rising medical bills and the impact on mental and physical health. How do you think these cuts will affect our communities? #Health #BodyHealth #OhioHealth00Share
james60+FollowOhio ER waits hit crisis levels—what’s next?Ohio’s emergency rooms are seeing more patients stuck waiting for hours—sometimes even a full day—just to get a hospital bed. This “boarding” problem is getting worse, and experts say it could skyrocket when big Medicaid cuts hit in 2027. That means longer waits, sicker patients, and even higher risks for those who need urgent care. Hospitals are already stretched thin, and the coming changes could leave even more Ohioans uninsured. How do you think this will impact our communities, and what should be done to fix it? #Health #BodyHealth #OhioHealth00Share
Jorge Figueroa+FollowHow NEOMED’s new dental school could change OhioNEOMED’s Bitonte College of Dentistry is flipping the script on dental education in Ohio by sending students straight into communities that need care most. Instead of just learning in classrooms, these future dentists will spend their final years treating real patients in underserved areas—urban and rural alike. This hands-on approach isn’t just about filling cavities; it’s about tackling the state’s deep-rooted oral health gaps and keeping folks out of the ER for preventable dental issues. If more schools followed this model, could we finally close the care gap? What do you think about students learning by serving their own communities? #Education #OhioHealth #DentalCare00Share
