For Businesses
What's Happening:
Healthcare access is good for business in Oklahoma.
Only 43%
of Oklahomans are covered by employer-provided health insurance. Programs like Medicaid help fill the gap to keep workers healthy and on the job.
Oklahoma’s hospitals generate
186,000 high-quality jobs
and $30.5 billion in annual economic activity – which has a ripple effect for all of us. These hospitals depend on funding from Medicaid coverage.
Our state economy relies on healthcare.
Healthcare costs could rise even more.
Healthcare is already expensive.
If people in Oklahoma lose their health insurance and are uninsured, healthcare costs will increase for everyone in the state – not just people who are on Medicaid.
