(KMAland) — The Missouri Foundation for Health has released two reports that reveal significant obstacles Missourians face in accessing affordable health care. The first report from “Speak Up MO” covers Missourians’ health-care experiences, while the second, “Medical Debt in Missouri,” focuses on policy solutions. The findings highlight disparities in access to care and the financial burden of rising healthcare costs. Alarming statistics show one in five Missourians reported being without health insurance at some point in the past year.
