Things You Should Know About the President’s New Health Care Plan

President Trump praised the new Republican replacement for Obamacare as “wonderful” on Tuesday.

Coulter didn’t stop there, calling the plan a “piece of crap” and demanding to know who wrote the bill, which congressional Republicans prepared in secret. On Monday afternoon, shortly before the House bill was released, four key Republican senators released a letter warning about its plan to phase out the Medicaid expansion that has helped 11 million new people get healthcare.

“If it’s an advanced, refundable tax credit so you’re giving a credit to people who don’t have a liability, that’s just a subsidy”, Jordan said.

One of the biggest changes in the bill is a reduction in the amount of support going to Medicaid-which covers more than 70 million people, including women, children, and elderly who can not afford health care otherwise. Instead, it institutes a tax credit-based system that increases the amount of money Americans receive to purchase health insurance based on age.

“This is a work in progress”, EFE news quoted Price as saying regarding the government’s aim to work with the more sceptical lawmakers.

I think really that we’re going to have something that’s going to be much more understood and much more popular than people can even imagine. Given Vice President Mike Pence’s tie breaking vote, they can only afford to lose two GOP senators.

“The Republican repeal bill would rip health care away from millions of Americans, ration care for working families and seniors, and put insurance companies back in charge of health care decisions – contrary to everything President Trump has said he would do with his health care plan”, said Democratic Reps. A 27-year-old with that same income would see receive 11 percent more in tax credits to cover the cost of insurance. The bill does keep some facets of Obamacare, including protecting patients with pre-existing conditions and allowing children under age 26 to stay on their parents’ insurance.

Under the new Republican plan Americans would no longer be penalised for not having health insurance, nor would employers be forced to provide it for their staff. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who said Monday that the House GOP plan “looks like ObamaCare Lite” and was “going to have to change”. “If you’re younger and healthier, you’ll probably do a lot better under the tax credit system as it’s now designed”. They said any replacement plan should offer a “stable transition period and the opportunity to gradually phase-in their populations to any new Medicaid financing structure”.
