Here are four ways Trump’s policies could undermine Obamacare enrollment and coverage

Changes could be in store for the more than 24 million people with health coverage under the Affordable Care Act .

A driver behind these changes is the “ One Big Beautiful Bill,” the name given to spending and tax legislation.

The changes also would come from regulations the Trump administration proposed in March and the potential expiration of premium subsidies put in place during the covid-19 pandemic.

The House bill would turn into law a Trump proposal to shorten the ACA open enrollment period.

Without a Social Security number, any application to add a newborn to an ACA policy would automatically generate a hold on premium tax credits for that family.

The CBO expects that about 4.2 million more people will be uninsured in 2034 as a result.
