Red tape is not neutral.
H.R. 1 would add barriers to coverage that lead to delayed care, higher costs, and increased strain on Oklahoma hospitals — especially in rural areas.

I plugged son's info into healthcare dot gov (ACA!) Unemployed adult. 26. 0 income. Cheapest rate quoted was 10,000 deductible at 291/mo. Most plans 330-450. How is an unemployed adult to pay?
Why is OUR income required for soonercare (medicare) just bc he's unemployed & we don't want him homeless?

Lol, i dont blame you, for multiple reasons we're so awesome, but for healthcare it would be better for you to work on it in your state. There may be someone working on it. Even if it's red, it could still pass. Guess how many Oklahomans know parts of SoonerCare came from Obamacare? #marketing 😉

Only fourteen states call it “Medicaid.” The majority of Medicaid-funded programs avoid the stigmatizing label “Medicaid,” instead branding themselves Health Net, Health Link, FamilyCare and the like. Most insureds have no idea they get Medicaid.
It’s like ACA enrollees who say they hate Obamacare.

I didn't qualify for Soonercare/Medicaid for Dec 2025, when I have to foot the bill, but I would for 2026 so long as I remain unemployed--and also so long as I don't want to see my cardiologist nor my psychiatrist every 3 months because my sanity meds require quarterly visits. Fun times!

Work requirements don’t boost employment — they boost bureaucracy.
People get caught in system errors, verification failures, and deadlines that working families can’t meet.
When coverage is on the line, red tape has real consequences.

I FUCKING HATE OKLAHOMA! I found out because I'm on SoonerCare Choice (Medicaid) and not on SoonerCare that my doctor can't refer me to a bone specialist. I have to change plans to SoonerCare, find a PHP that accepts SoonerCare Choice, or accept the abnormalities that occur from a misaligned wrist.

Many states rename their Medicaid programs to reflect a more local identity.
For example:
Husky Health – Connecticut
BadgerCare Plus – Wisconsin
SoonerCare – Oklahoma
Medi-Cal – California
