Changes in Medicaid for 2027

Beginning in 2027, the federal law commonly known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill” introduces new work or community engagement requirements for certain adults receiving Medicaid, along with more frequent eligibility reviews for adults covered through Medicaid expansion. These changes may create additional barriers to maintaining coverage, though exemptions apply. People enrolled in Medicaid should watch for notices from their state program and seek help understanding how the changes affect them.

If you are uninsured, lose coverage, or need affordable care, explore the list below for local clinics, free or reduced-cost services, and health assistance programs.
