The Trump Administration is abandoning plans for the biggest-ever cut to Social Security Disability Insurance, which would have hit older workers hardest.
The rule would have devastated up to 1.5 million workers' financial stability, retirement security & access to health care.

Private Medicaid insurers list big networks of doctors to help get billions of taxpayer dollars. Many of those doctors don't actually see Medicaid patients.
Medicaid Insurers Promise Lots of Doctors. Good Luck Seeing One.

We talk about how few minutes patients spend with providers...and forget how long patients spend taking care of themselves.
One patient spent roughly 8,760 hours annually managing her health versus just ONE hour with clinicians.
