LEGISLATION ISSUESMon, Sep 14According to Senate health care negotiators they’ve pared down the cost of their 10-year coverage plan to under $880 billion, but although they hope to have a formal proposal by midweek, they're not ready to agree yet on a bipartisan deal. The talks continue and include topics such as a verification system to prevent illegal immigrants from getting government subsidies to buy health coverage as well as benefits for the poor, medical malpractice and restrictions on abortion coverage. The plan would still require all Americans to get health insurance, either through an employer, a government program, or on their own. The majority of people already covered through an employer plan would not see major changes. But self-employed people and small businesses would now be able to buy more affordable coverage through a new purchasing pool called an exchange. Government tax credits would be provided. |
