States face hard choices after big health care funding cuts

Season 2025 Episode 256 | 5m 29s

The Trump administration is planning sweeping cuts to health care funding across the country. Some of those cuts have already taken effect, while others will roll out over the next few years. KFF Health News senior health policy correspondent Stephanie Armour joins Lisa Desjardins to discuss what this means for states, which will have to shoulder more of the costs of health programs.
