Now that you reduced it to two outliers fair enough. Apparently in only helps in something like 96% of cases. To repeat. Its not a cure all. Just an improvment.

🙄 I just didn't feel like retyping. Look at North Carolina and Nevada. They're so bad!

I got an answer for Missouri by the way, it's because the Republican governor won't implement the Medicaid expansion that the people vote for - that's the kind of answer I want. Stop handwaving the problem and actually critically engage with it.

Its not handwaving. Your just asking for things way outside of what the data shows. Yeah could be implementation as there are better and worse ways to do it, but it could also be what the rest of the states healthcare system is like. North carolina im not so sure is super red. Maybe my map knowledge is off but nevada looks a bit regional. Its possible gambling and general debt could be effecting it. It could be all sorts of things. This picturejust shows that in general expanding medicaid seems to correlate with less medical debt.

Yes, I'm asking for additional context to understand the data in the picture. Duh?

[-] HubertManne@kbin.social 1 points 2 months ago

Thats fine. Im not sure how many or if any studies may have been done but I certainly have no links to any for that type of inquiry. I am skeptical that anyone could give you more than a guess answer.

I've gotten some interesting explanations for specific states so I got what I wanted anyway🤷‍♀️
