Let's say I have a hospital stay and it was 3000 dollars. I have to pay a deductible and the rest is covered. Let's say the deductible is 1000 that I have to pay and the rest insurance pays. This is just one example, but deductibles went up when Obama care went into effect. At least it did in my insurance and I worked for a major corporation with a big name insurance company. Thanks for describing that, G. That was very clear and I much appreciate it. RE: Health Care Reform - jj22 - 08-04-2020 Now it's by the end of the month.. We already know there is no plan and won't be one as long as the party holding Presidency believes Healthcare is a privilege. RE: Health Care Reform - Nately120 - 08-04-2020 I'll bet my left nut that we will soon hear that the republican promise of totally super awesome healthcare reform that'll be the best ever and make us all rich and healthy and constantly orgasm will 100000% will be passed the second Trump gets re-elected. Oh and then if Biden wins we get to hear how despite republicans being in power for 12 of the past 20 years they were just one damn second away from giving us the best healthcare reform EVERRRRRRR but we blew it by electing the wrong gropey idiot with crappy hair plugs.

I was surprised when he gave a deadline before the election (since it wouldn't be possible to pass it before then even if they had a plan). RE: Health Care Reform - GMDino - 08-07-2020 RE: Health Care Reform - BmorePat87 - 08-07-2020 My biggest concern is the number of insured Americans and working to raise that while reducing overall costs in a system that phases in major reform. I’ve been clear that I supported Buttigieg’s Medicare for all who want it rather than outright banning private insurance. RE: Health Care Reform - GMDino - 08-08-2020 Folks! We have a hint at Trump's plan! He's going to stop calling the ACA "Obamacare" and....uh...that's it. Just stop giving Obama credit for it.
Oh, btw.... https://www.cbpp.org/research/health/suit-challenging-aca-legally-suspect-but-threatens-loss-of-coverage-for-tens-of Quote:The Trump Administration and 18 Republican state attorneys general are asking the Supreme Court to strike down the entire Affordable Care Act (ACA) as unconstitutional. The Justice Department (DOJ) and Republican states petitioning for judicial repeal of the law will file briefs by June 25, with oral arguments this fall and a decision likely next spring. The ACA remains the law of the land for now, and legal experts across the political spectrum view the case against it as extremely weak. But if the courts “terminate” the ACA, as President Trump again urged in May, some 20 million people would become uninsured — likely many more when accounting for COVID-19’s effects on ACA participation. In addition, if the Administration prevails, millions more could be charged more or denied coverage altogether because they have a pre-existing condition or would lose other important protections. RE: Health Care Reform - BmorePat87 - 08-25-2020 Another healthcare deadline Trump set has passed with no action. https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/513518-trump-deadline-for-drug-pricing-order-passes-with-no-action Trump has repeatedly touted this executive order, but with the deadline being hit without any action, the White House has not made any plans to enforce it or move forward, declining to comment when asked.

RE: Health Care Reform - BmorePat87 - 09-16-2020 Health care may be one of the most egregious things in the Trump administration, but I feel like it gets little attention.

Damn, Trump really turned the world of politics on its ear. ![]() Anyways, like I've said before I'm pretty sure republicans have been dangling this supposedly amazing healthcare plan in front of us since we were fool enough to elect Obama 12 years ago. Regardless of who wins in 2020, they're going to go right back to "working on it" and teasing it for at least another 4 years aren't they?

RE: Health Care Reform - BmorePat87 - 10-01-2020 There's still no plan WALLACE: Mr President, the Supreme Court will hear a case, a week after the election, in which the Trump administration, along with 18 state attorneys general are seeking to overturn Obamacare, to end Obamacare. You have sent the last -- TRUMP: Because I want to give good healthcare. Good healthcare. WALLACE: If I may ask that question, sir. Over the last four years you have promised to repeal and replace Obamacare but you have never in these four years, come up with a plan, a comprehensive plan, to replace Obamacare. TRUMP: Yes I have. Of course I have. I'll get rid of the individual mandate which was added. That is absolutely a big thing, that was the worst part of Obamacare. The worst part of Obamacare. Well, I’ll ask Joe. The individual mandate was the most unpopular aspect of Obamacare. I got rid of it. WALLACE: I am the moderator in this debate. And I would like you to let me ask my question and then you can answer. TRUMP: Go ahead. WALLACE: You, in the course of these four years, have never come up with a comprehensive plan to replace Obamacare, and just this last Thursday, you signed a largely symbolic executive order to protect people with pre-existing conditions, five days before this debate. So my question sir is, what is the Trump healthcare plan. TRUMP: Well, first of all, I guess I'm debating you not him, but that's okay, I’m not surprised. Let me just tell you something. That has nothing symbolic. I'm cutting drug prices, I'm going with favored nations which no president has encouraged to do because you're going against big pharma. Drug prices will be coming down, 80 or 90%. You could have done it during your 47 year period in government but you didn't do it, nobody's done it. So we're cutting health care, all of the things that we've done -- insulin. I‘ll give an example: insulin. It's going to, it was destroying families -- destroyed people, the cost -- ‘I'm getting it for so cheap; it's like water.’ You want to know the truth, so cheap. Take a look at all of the drugs that --- what we're doing, prescription drug prices, we're going to allow our governors now to go to other countries to buy drugs because when they make just a tiny fraction -- this is big stuff.
