Trump Is Playing a Risky Game of Chicken with Health Insurers
The Washington Post; subscription may be required Link to more items from this source
Apr. 14, 2017
"The specific issue that insurers and the president are focused on at the moment are cost-sharing reductions, payments to health insurers that help reduce the deductibles and co-pays for 7 million Americans. The way the payments are funded has been successfully challenged in a lawsuit by House Republicans, but the administration has continued paying them while the case is on appeal. If the payments are stopped, insurers will have to decide whether to exit the market completely or raise premiums by around 15 percent -- and the mere possibility that they could go away or be used as a bargaining chip may make some queasy about offering plans at all."
