Author: internet - Published 2019-06-03 07:00:00 PM - (315 Reads)A Gallup poll cites healthcare costs as the leading financial challenge for most U.S. families, and the most likely top issue for older Americans, reports The Hill . Twenty-five percent of adults between 50 and 64, and 23 percent of adults 65 and older, named healthcare expenses their overriding financial problem. "Even in generally good economic times, Americans still face significant personal financial challenges," Gallup noted. "Foremost among these are healthcare costs, which have been a consistent concern over time but currently stand above all other concerns. As such, healthcare will likely continue to be a major focus in national elections, including the 2020 presidential election."
