Observations
This measure allows patients, families and doctors to make medical decisions, not Washington, DC. That is an excellent place to begin improving health care. What a shame that wasnt the driving factor behind the ACA. You can get folks covered, you can solve the insurance challenges, and you can save hundreds of billions of dollars in this health care system, said the physician/Congressman, all without putting Washington or health insurance companies in charge of those decisions that ought to be between patients, and families and doctors. How can H.R. 2300 a bill of only 249 pages, less than a tenth the length of the monstrous Obamacare bill accomplish this? Rep. Price describes it as comprehensive legislation under which every single American has the financial feasibility to purchase the coverage they want, either through tax deductions, or credits, or advanceable credits or refundable advanceable credits so that they can purchase the coverage they want for themselves or their families, not what the government forces them to buy. He says further that everyone owns their own coverage, like a 401k plan, so if they change their job or lose their job, they take their coverage with them, and it allows all of those with preexisting conditions to pool together, giving them the purchasing power of millions so that no one persons adverse health status will change the cost for anyone else, including that one person. While H.R. 2300 has the great advantage of being properly focused on patients and physicians, trying to straighten out the voluminous failures of the ACA in one bill is a Herculean feat. Obamacare needs to be repealed in total, and as soon as possible, and then Congress must undertake a sensible approach to correcting the problems of the health care system without turning it over to the government.
