For the democrats..their greatest fear is that Trump is actually going to fix the healthcare system....decrease cost, increase the quality.....and get politicians out of it....that leaves them terrified....
And he means it.....
There was an insurance expert on the Dan and Amy morning show here in Chicago....he stated that the plan that will be the model for the Republicans when they replace obamacare is the Empowering Patients First Act...authored by Representative, Dr. Tom Price....there will be adjustments.......to keep coverage for existing conditions and allowing children up to 26.....to stay on their parents healthcare....and people who currently have healthcare under obamacare are not going to lose when it is repealed until the new plan is up and running...they are already covered and won't lose it...
He also stated this will open up healthcare to more companies to come back in, which will reduce cost, and they won't have to offer mandates for every single thing under the sun...they can create plans people actually want, and will be able to charge less since they won't be mandated to cover hair plugs and birth control pills for 40 year old men.....
So the democrats should be terrified.....less expensive health care, better coverage, and politicians won't be in control
Empowering Patients First Act - Wikipedia
The Empowering Patients First Act is legislation sponsored by Rep. Tom Price, first introduced as H.R. 3400 in the 111th Congress. The bill was initially intended to be a Republican alternative to the America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009 (H.R. 3200), but has since been positioned as a potential replacement to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). The bill was introduced in the 112th Congress as H.R. 3000, and in the 113th Congress as H.R. 2300. As of October 2014, the bill has 58 cosponsors. An identical version of the bill has been introduced in the Senate by Senator John McCain as S. 1851 (113th Congress).
Major provisions of the Act include tax deductions and credits to aid in the purchasing of health insurance, the promotion of state-based high-risk insurance pools, the creation of individual and small employer membership associations and association health plans, allowing for interstate insurance markets, a reform of malpractice lawsuits, and loan and loan repayment programs.
The Act intends to fund itself through cuts to future spending increases, more commonly known as sequestration, and expected declines in the uninsured population. The Act's effects on the general public and the federal budget have yet to be assessed by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT).
