What OBBB Means For Healthcare

The One Big Beautiful Bill is now the law of the land. Signed on July 4, it’s being sold as a patriotic triumph of commonsense and fiscal sanity. But it cuts Medicaid dramatically, throws millions of people off of coverage, and erects a thicket of bureaucratic hassles for those who remain.

In this episode of CareTalk, John Driscoll and David Williams break down the sweeping healthcare implications of OBBB, from deep Medicaid cuts and strict eligibility rules to potential fallout for rural hospitals. While marketed as a win for personal responsibility and fiscal sanity, the hosts unpack how the law may actually drive up the deficit and leave vulnerable populations out in the cold.
