On July 4th, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill” was signed into law—bringing with it sweeping tax reforms but also the most significant Medicaid cuts in U.S. history.

While headlines focus on tax breaks, the healthcare industry—especially those relying on Medicaid funding—faces an urgent financial reckoning.

📉 The Impact: Cuts That Can’t Be Ignored

  • 16 million Americans are projected to lose health coverage by 2034
  • Over $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts across 10 years
  • $50.4 billion in losses expected for rural hospitals
  • Up to $8,340/year in added out-of-pocket costs for low-income seniors due to reduced Medicare assistance

These numbers aren’t theoretical—they’re affecting providers, payers, and care teams already operating on razor-thin margins.

The question now is: how do we move forward?

A Time for Solutions, Not Panic

At Kbrax, we believe this moment—challenging as it is—is also a chance to lead. Every provider, health plan, and care organization is being forced to do more with less. That’s where our technology comes in.

The CompleteCarePlatform was designed to support whole-person care—but also to optimize operations, reduce waste, and improve outcomes across fragmented systems. In times of constraint, it becomes even more valuable.

How We Help Health Systems Adapt and Lead

1. Support Better Outcomes with Fewer Resources

🧾 26% of Medicaid and Medicare hospitalizations are potentially avoidable, often due to gaps in care coordination.

Our care management tools simplify team collaboration, reduce duplication, and streamline daily workflows—so you can maintain quality even with tighter staffing or budget limits.

2. Boost Patient Satisfaction and Engagement

📲 Engaged patients are 2.6× more likely to follow their treatment plans and report higher satisfaction.

MindPure, our mobile-first patient layer, enables medication reminders, goal tracking, and mental health support—all while keeping providers in the loop. Better communication means better outcomes.

3. Track Quality Metrics That Matter

📊 Up to 40% of Medicaid fee-for-service payments are now tied to quality metrics.

Kbrax helps you monitor and improve quality scores—covering everything from preventive care gaps to behavioral health follow-up. Real-time dashboards keep you ahead of performance thresholds.

4. Address Social Risk to Reduce Costly Utilization

🚑 Patients with unmet social needs have a 68% higher chance of 30-day readmission.

We integrate social determinants of health (SDoH) into care plans—flagging food, housing, and transportation issues before they lead to ER visits or readmissions. Our referral tools connect patients to community resources in just a few clicks.

5. Extend Capacity in Rural and Underserved Areas

🏥 46% of rural hospitals are operating at a loss, and hundreds are at risk of closure.

Kbrax helps providers in low-resource settings deliver care through telehealth, asynchronous communication, and streamlined workflows. Fewer staff can support more patients—without sacrificing care.

The Bottom Line: We’re Here to Help You Lead Through It

This isn’tjust about compliance—it’s about protecting care access, operational stability, and financial resilience. We understand that budgets are being cut, but investing in the right tools can help mitigate the damage and even turn the tide.

At Kbrax, we’re not just responding to the problem—we’re equipping organizations to thrive in spite of it.
