10 states with most coverage at risk under King v. Burwell

The Supreme Court is expected to rule this month on King v. Burwell. If the judges rule in favor of King, who is challenging the legality of health insurance subsidies provided to low- and middle-income people through the federal HealthCare.gov exchange, residents of the 34 states that have not raised their own exchanges could lose subsidies.

Based on data from the Kaiser Family Foundation, the following 10 states have the most residents enrolled for coverage under the federal exchange and thus the most people at risk of losing their subsidies.

1. Florida — 1.32 million people at risk

2. Texas — 832,334 people

3. North Carolina — 458,738 people

4. Georgia — 412,385 people

5. Pennsylvania — 348,823 people

6. Virginia — 285,938 people

7. Illinois — 232,371 people

8. Michigan — 228,388 people

9. Missouri — 197,663 people

10. New Jersey — 172,345 people
