Paul Keckley, writing in Hospitals & Health Networks, predicts that these things may happen in the early days of GOP efforts to dismantle the Affordable Care Act:
- “Dismantling Healthcare.gov and transitioning control of the marketplaces to the states.
- “Negotiating with congressional budget officers and the Department of Health & Human Services for the transfer of Medicaid responsibility to the states via block grants.
- “Expanding tax credits and high risk pools for individuals and allowing purchases of insurance across state lines.
- “And through legislative negotiations, transitioning oversight and subsidies for its 12 million newly insured to states over a period of several months.”
