Health Care Cuts Will Impact Asthma Care

UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – The One Big Beautiful Bill Act cuts $1 trillion from Medicaid, risking coverage loss for nearly 12 million Americans and threatening hundreds of rural hospitals nationwide, analysts say.

  • On July 4, 2025, President Donald Trump enacted a budget reconciliation bill that includes reductions exceeding one trillion dollars to Medicaid funding.
  • Rural hospitals like Ocean Beach Health in Washington are vulnerable due to high Medicaid reliance, and the cuts follow ongoing financial strain and closures nationwide.
  • Ocean Beach Health receives 40% of its income from Medicaid, made just $8,000 in profits last year, and got about $1,000 from distressed hospital grants in 2025.
  • Cassie Sauer, who leads the Washington State Hospital Association, warned that the consequences of this bill will be significant, with numerous hospitals facing potential closures or reductions in services.
  • The cuts could accelerate closures of rural hospitals, threaten care access, and stress services despite a $50 billion relief fund spread over impacted hospitals nationwide.
