TL;DR Summary

In Florida, millions of Americans, including the Navas family, have been affected by Medicaid disenrollment, with nearly a quarter of adults disenrolled from Medicaid reporting being uninsured. The unwinding process has led to difficulties in renewing coverage, leaving many people without insurance temporarily and causing delays in seeking care. States are reassessing eligibility for Medicaid, leading to the disenrollment of about 20 million people, with the process expected to continue for several more months. The survey found that nearly 1 in 3 disenrolled adults only discovered they had been dropped from Medicaid when seeking healthcare, highlighting the challenges in communicating with enrollees during the eligibility review process.
