Texas Removes 1.7M People from Health-Care Plan – Newsweek

The continuous enrollment provision, passed by Congress as part of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act in March 2020, required states to ensure coverage for enrollees during the pandemic, who were spared the need to go through regular eligibility redeterminations. The policy ended on March 31, 2023, with eligibility checks and disenrollments recommencing for those who were either ineligible, or whose redetermination could not be completed due to administrative hurdles. Since the unwinding process began, over 25 million people have been disenrolled from CHIP and Medicaid, according to KFF.
