Nowy plan republikański, który właśnie przeszedł w Kongresie zakłada (wg wyliczeń Congressional Budget Office), że do 2026 roku aż 23 mln Amerykanów straci ubezpieczenie zdrowotne, głównie biedni, starsi, a także chorujący na choroby przewlekłe.
Z tego powodu nawet część republikanów tego nie poparła.
The CBO said markets for people to buy individual insurance plans could then become "unstable" in states that choose to waive the Obamacare requirements for coverage of pre-existing medical conditions and essential health benefits.
Even before the report, many Republican senators were wary of the House version of the healthcare bill, saying it unraveled Obamacare too much and too quickly. About 20 million people gained insurance under Obamacare.
The House bill would eliminate most Obamacare taxes that help subsidize private health coverage for individuals, roll back the government's Medicaid health plan for the poor and disabled and replace the law's income-based tax credits for buying medical coverage with credits based on age.
