End to Obamacare subsidies effects Mississippians

Pro-Trump states most affected by decision to end ACA subsidies

In Mississippi, a state Trump won, an estimated 80 percent of consumers who buy coverage on the insurance exchange benefit from the deductible and co-pay discounts, the highest percentage of any state. Premiums there will increase by 47 percent next year, after regulators assumed Trump would end the cost-sharing payments.

Some insurers may decide to bail out of markets altogether.
