Obamacare Patient access strains amid expansion plans
The ACA expands Medicaid in about half the states on January 1 with many subsidized premiums. DHHS says 15,230 primary care doctors are needed, while ER visits rise faster than population growth. Health officials warn of months-long waits as the uninsured seek care, potentially challenging the law's rollout. Sara Rosenbaum of George Washington University cautions a slow ramp up rather than a sudden surge.
