Two million Americans lose their health insurance each month, according to a report released this fall by the health consumer group Families USA.

“Some lose insurance for a month or two. Some for a year or more. But, however brief, it’s a terribly dangerous time for a family. If a child gets seriously ill, it can destroy a family’s security forever,” said Ron Pollack, executive director of Families USA.

In Virginia, 55,000 people lose their health insurance each month, eleventh highest in the nation.
