CBO: Repealing the ACA will leave 32M Uninsured and Double Premiums by 2026

Go on, keep lying to yourselves that Repeal is a great political move.
quote:
In brief, CBO and JCT estimate that enacting that legislation would affect insurance coverage and premiums primarily in these ways:
The number of people who are uninsured would increase by 18 million in the first new plan year following enactment of the bill. Later, after the elimination of the ACA’s expansion of Medicaid eligibility and of subsidies for insurance purchased through the ACA marketplaces, that number would increase to 27 million, and then to 32 million in 2026.
Premiums in the nongroup market (for individual policies purchased through the marketplaces or directly from insurers) would increase by 20 percent to 25 percent—relative to projections under current law—in the first new plan year following enactment. The increase would reach about 50 percent in the year following the elimination of the Medicaid expansion and the marketplace subsidies, and premiums would about double by 2026.
quote:
According to the agencies’ analysis, eliminating the mandate penalties and the subsidies while retaining the market reforms would destabilize the nongroup market, and the effect would worsen over time.
quote:
After weighing the evidence from prior state-level reforms and input from experts and market participants, CBO and JCT estimate that about half of the nation’s population lives in areas that would have no insurer participating in the nongroup market in the first year after the repeal of the marketplace subsidies took effect, and that share would continue to increase, extending to about three-quarters of the population by 2026. That contraction of the market would most directly affect people without access to employment-based coverage or public health insurance.
Go on, keep lying to yourselves that Repeal is a great political move.

This is why the "replace" part is so important.

CBO has been politicized.
But don't worry - Trump will fix that.

It is, but Republicans have had 7 years to develop a "replace" plan and thus far have no plan they agree on. What they do have are scattered collections of talking points, which are fairy tales.

Go to school, study hard, get a good paying job so you can have insurance.
What's wrong with that idea?

Was also your opinion on your new President. So it's probably not worth considering anymore.

Repeal + replace = success. Like most liberals, you only read one article about the issue from a biased source and decided that was enough evidence to back your political affiliation-based opinion

We'll argue the numbers later but this doesn't take into account having another plan ready to go.

I'll bet anything on this planet the CBO doesn't know what's in the Rep's replacement plan. Any takers?

Didn't the CBO also say we were going to save $1,200 per family per year with the ACA?
frick those government idiots. As usual, they either don't know shite or willfully obfuscate the truth for personal gain.

Pre-existing conditions, for starters. Lifetime caps, for another.

Note that the Democrats in Congress who are attacking this appeal are not enrolled, forcibly as is the rest of the country, in Obamacare. They have their own health care plan as Federal employees, one that is a lot cheaper & provides a lot better coverage. Is it a coincidence that Congress gets to "keep its physician of choice"?

The same CBO who scored this shite as budget neutral due to procedural tricks to move costs past the 10 year window used to determine budget effects?

If only there were a way the newly uninsured could voice their displeasure...say around 2018 maybe.
Trump also seems determined to poke the black vote hornets nest as well, maybe they show up in 18 as well.
