Medicare and Medicaid Anniversary: Can We Protect Both Programs? #CareTalk

Medicare and Medicaid were created 61 years ago to protect Americans’ health and financial security. On their anniversary, we look at the future of both programs, and the growing attacks on Medicaid through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Margarida Jorge of Health Care for America Now discusses what the present and the future of Medicare and Medicaid looks like for patients, families, seniors, people with disabilities, and everyone who depends on affordable health care in this #CareTalk episode with myself of Health Care Voices.

Also Louise Norris of healthinsurance.org and Rachel Madley, PhD of Center for Health & Democracy answer your health insurance questions on Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, private insurance and more.
