Millions of Americans have dropped health insurance coverage as federal subsidies ended and premiums spiked. The enrollment collapse signals a potential crisis in the individual insurance market.
Millions of Americans have canceled health insurance on the individual market as federal subsidies ran out and premiums shot up. The enrollment collapse is sharp and sudden, hitting families that could previously afford coverage at subsidized rates. The timing matters: this happens as the health care debate heats up in Washington, and it demonstrates how quickly coverage stability can evaporate when government support ends. The individual insurance market is now showing signs of the spiral that insurers fear—healthier people drop out when costs rise, making the remaining pool sicker and more expensive, which drives more people to drop out.
