One in eight people on Medicaid reported losing coverage under the safety-net insurance program about six months into redeterminations in four Southern states, according to a study published in JAMA Health Forum.
About half of the survey respondents who were unenrolled from Medicaid became uninsured in Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana and Texas, according to the study. Twenty-seven percent had employer-sponsored insurance at the time of the survey, and the rest found other coverage. 
Those who lost Medicaid coverage during redeterminations reported higher rates of delays and affordability challenges when trying to access care, according to the survey.
