BRIDGE Georgia
Close the Gap
Nearly 300,000 Georgians are unable to afford private health insurance yet earn just above the threshold to qualify for Medicaid–leaving them caught in the healthcare coverage gap.
Georgians want a healthier Georgia. It’s time to close the gap.

What Leaders Are Saying

“Cancer is the second leading cause of death in Georgia. Studies have shown that cancer screening and survival rates increase in states that have expanded access to Medicaid. Georgia CORE stands by efforts to close the coverage gap for all Georgians, so more lives can be saved.”
