A new KFF tool generates data-driven fact sheets that lay out the health care landscape in every state against the backdrop of the 2024 election.
These state “snapshots” provide information on a variety of health care topics that may be the focus of campaign and policy debates. Topics include
- health costs;
- medical debt;
- women’s health policy, including state abortion, contraception and maternity laws and policies;
- health coverage, including the Affordable Care Act, Medicare and prescription drug coverage, Medicaid, and employer-sponsored insurance;
- gender affirming care; and
- basic information on health status, population and income.
The new tool is part of KFF’s broader collection of Election 2024-related resources, including our side-by-side comparison of the candidates’ positions and records on health policy issues.
