5 million have dropped ACA insurance after Trump and the GOP let prices skyrocket
Far more people than previously known have dropped Affordable Care Act health insurance for 2026, according to data released Friday.
Five million fewer people are currently enrolled in ACA marketplace plans compared to the record high reached last year. More than 1 million fewer people picked a plan for 2026, and then 4 million more either disenrolled or failed to pay their premiums and therefore dropped coverage.
Prices in the market skyrocketed after President Trump and Republicans in Congress failed to extend extra financial help for enrollees last year. The Department of Health and Human Services published a report about the data on its website Friday.
