It mandates 12 months of Medicaid coverage for eligible postpartum mothers and ensures that, once a person is enrolled in Medicaid, regardless of their income changes, they will be covered for a full year. The bill ends the Trump administration's expansion of junk insurance plans, which exclude coverage of routine care--imagine that; what kind of policy doesn't cover routine care?--and has left patients on the hook for thousands of dollars in medical bills, and it reinstates critical funding for outreach, marketing, and enrollment so more Americans can easily sign up for insurance. I am very proud that many parts of this bill originated in the Health Subcommittee, which I chair, where my first hearings as chair examined how to strengthen the ACA. This is good for the American people, especially during this crisis of a pandemic and a recession.
