Obamacare.... how many people are uninsured???

[healthmyths]

Watching Senator Booker claim the sole objective for SCOTUS to be Barrett, is Trump wants to have SCOTUS over rule Obamacare I keep asking a simple question?

WHY?

Booker says "Millions of Americans will lose their health coverage". Millions??? How many millions?
Attached is an explanation how the "46 million uninsured Americans" which was used to pass by just 7 votes Obamacare.
So again how many Americans don't have health insurance???
49% of Americans (156,199,800) HAVE employer health insurance
Source: https://www.ehealthinsurance.com/re...cans-get-health-insurance-from-their-employer

According to Medicare a total 62,745,770 Americans are enrolled or about 18% have health insurance coverage.

Medicaid 17.9% of all Americans or a total 59,070,000 Americans are enrolled in Medicaid .

Approximately 12,000,000 military personnel received coverage through the Veteran's Administration and Military Health System.

So clearly the answer to your question, about 15-20 million will lose insurance if Obamacare is invalidated by the SC and America reverts to prior status quo (blowing up the market in the process and possibly causing even more coverage loss in the short term)

Lack of health coverage has been a persistent problem in the U.S. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) sought to address gaps in the health coverage system and led to historic gains in health insurance coverage by extending Medicaid coverage to many low-income individuals and providing Marketplace subsidies for individuals below 400% of poverty. The number of uninsured nonelderly Americans decreased from over 46.5 million in 2010 (the year the ACA was enacted) to just below 27 million in 2016. However, for the second year in a row, the number of uninsured people increased from 2017 to 2018 by nearly 500,000 people. This issue brief describes how coverage has changed in recent years, examines the characteristics of the uninsured population, and summarizes the access and financial implications of not having coverage.

The point is, right wingers don't care about the people only the profits. Some on the right wing insist our welfare clause is not General but only limited or common and cannot help individuals of the People. Or, that healthcare is not a right for civilians, only the military. There is no general warfare clause nor any common offense clause.

For the second year in a row, the number of uninsured increased. In 2018, 27.9 million nonelderly individuals were uninsured, an increase of nearly 500,000 from 2017. Since 2016 when the number of uninsured reached historic lows, the number of people who lack health insurance coverage has grown by 1.2 million. Despite these recent increases, the uninsured rate remains substantially lower than it was in 2010, when the first ACA provisions went into effect and prior to the full implementation of Medicaid expansion and the establishment of Health Insurance Marketplaces. Data show substantial gains in public and private insurance coverage and historic decreases in the number of uninsured people under the ACA, with nearly 20 million gaining coverage.

Right wingers only had nothing but Repeal not any better healthcare solutions at lower cost.

FACT: The architect of ObamaCare Jonathan Gruber and his coauthors--Yes the same Gruber that said.."Obamacare only passed due to the 'stupidity' of the American voter and a lack of 'transparency",
NOW NOTE:::using data from the Census Bureau, estimate that Medicaid “produced 63% of the gains [in coverage] that we identified” for 2014.
They also found that much of this gain was attributable to the enrollment in Medicaid of people who were eligible for the program under criteria that preceded the ACA’s Medicaid expansion:

New Gruber Study Raises Major Questions About Obamacare's Medicaid Expansion

A new study suggests that people who were already eligible for Medicaid before the ACA have been inappropriately categorized as though they are newly eligible because of the ACA and that a lot fewer people than previously thought would lose coverage if the ACA is repealed.

Do you understand? over 60% of the people enrolled in Obamacare WERE ELIGIBLE BEFORE OBAMACARE for MEDICAID!!!
Remember my point on the attached:
14 million of UNINSURED Americans were Eligible for MEDICAID BEFORE ACA!
Obama failed to get 14 million people eligible for Medicaid enrolled. That's all that WAS needed.
There was NO NEED for Obama care to cover these 14 million.
All they needed to do is REGISTER with Medicaid.
They didn’t know they were eligible UNTIL AFTER Obamacare made them aware!

As a matter of fact Obamacare increased insurance coverage by 15-20 million people and if it is invalidated all that will be undone.

You are so stupid! Of course it's a real number in that some of those people have multiple coverage!
There are Medicare covered that are still working and have employer coverage!
You evidently think all numbers like 374 million cast in concrete. Dummy! Statistics are variables! And so it is possible also that 20% is off!
20% would be 60 million! So 374 million less 60 million STILL is FAR FAR from counting 10 million illegals...14 million Medicaid and 18 million that say they
don't have employers' insurance!
SEE ATTACHED! GEEZ I don't understand why dummies can't use the internet!

I thought this looked wrong: According to Medicare a total 62,745,770 Americans are enrolled or about 18% have health insurance coverage.

Currently, 44 million beneficiaries—some 15 percent of the U.S. population—are enrolled in the Medicare program. Enrollment is expected to rise to 79 million by 2030. Only one in 10 beneficiaries relies solely on the Medicare program for health care coverage.

"Hey dummy, has it ever occured to you that uninsured are not going to be making an apearance on the list of insurance types?"

Well you have proved you are a Dummy! 24 words and you misspelled 2! Talk about being a "dummy"! But your ignoring the two little red lines
under the misspelled words it shows YOU also IGNORE facts!
Now as far as "making an appearance" We are describing 374 million people covered by some form of health insurance.
There is absolutely no accurate number of uninsured people. Obama exaggerated by 10 million when his "46 million" included illegals!
He lied by 14 million when he said "46 million " because 14 million people (proven by the ACA architect) that only needed BEFORE ACA to sign with Medicaid!
So dummy a) you ignore the two dotted lines showing misspelled words b) which also shows YOU ignore the FACTS.
