Medicaid Expansion and Uninsurance in Redlined Areas
In the October 2023 issue of Health Affairs, Jason Semprini investigates the differential impacts of Medicaid expansion by exposure to redlining.

After categorizing census tracts by the degree of redlining that occurred in them, Semprini and coauthors conclude that tracts with the highest rates of historical redlining had the highest proportion of the population without insurance as of 2014.

However, Medicaid expansion pursuant to the Affordable Care Act that took effect in 2014 had the greatest impact on lowering uninsurance rates in census tracts with the highest level of redlining.

For more on this paper, watch a video abstract featuring author Jason Semprini below!
