Over the past two years, Alabama Arise has spoken with dozens of workers in Alabama’s Medicaid coverage gap. Many agreed to allow us to tell their personal stories, and those stories have resonated with many lawmakers and reporters.

Our storytellers have been featured in publications around the state, and even across the country. Now we’re looking for your help to build on that momentum as we work to close the coverage gap once and for all.

Are you or a loved one uninsured? Have you recently lost health coverage or been told you’re ineligible for Medicaid benefits? We want to hear your story!

Nearly 300,000 Alabamians would benefit from Medicaid expansion. Most of them live in the coverage gap. They don’t qualify for Alabama Medicaid or marketplace subsidies, and they are unable to afford private health coverage.
