Sabotaging the ACA

Another negotiation ploy at the expense of sick Americans..

In interviews over the past week, President Donald Trump has cast doubt on whether or not his administration will fund a key provision of the Affordable Care Act that helps offset costs for insurers. The uncertainty Trump is sowing over the payments — known as cost-sharing reduction (CSR) payments — has left insurers jittery and contemplating leaving the individual insurance exchanges created by the law known as Obamacare. Trump has put CSR payments on the table in an attempt to convince Democrats to negotiate with him on his replacement plan for the ACA. But the end of the payments could mean higher premiums and a dearth of choices for insurance, experts say.
