Pfff, tvnet jau nu gan ir īstais resurss, no kura smelties informāciju. :D
Rekur ir izmaiņas:
1. Tax credits to help buy insurance
Refundable tax credits, based on a person’s age and income, will be introduced to help a person buy insurance, if they don’t have it through their job. People under 30 get $2,000 a year; over 60s can claim $4,000. Critics point out that this could mean the inland revenue will be writing cheques to pay people who do not pay that amount in tax.
The wealthiest sectors of society will not be eligible for tax credits.
2. No more limits on healthcare savings
Americans will now be able to nearly double the amount of money that they can save in a healthcare savings account: Obamacare placed limits on it. Americans will no longer be forced to have insurance, and larger employers will no longer be forced to insure their workers:
3. No more fines for the uninsured
Obamacare included fines for individuals who did not have insurance, and forced large companies to provide cover. Under Trumpcare, fines are removed – but insurance companies can charge a 30 per cent premium if cover is allowed to lapse for 63 days or more.
4. Insurance companies now set their own prices
Insurance companies will have more freedom to set their own prices: it means that older people could pay five times the amount charged by younger consumers. Obamacare set the limit at three times the price.
The expansion of Medicaid – a programme which uses federal and state funds to support insurance for the most needy, such as disabled people and those deep in poverty – will be gradually rolled back.
5. Cuts to women's healthcare
Planned Parenthood, which receives federal funding to provide women's healthcare - abortions, contraception and cancer screenings – will see its funding cut.
Hospitals fear they too will suffer: Obamacare reduced the amount they had to write off from uninsured patients, with unpaid bills.
What remains the same?
Young adults under the age of 26 will still be able to be covered by their parents’ plan.
People with previously diagnosed medical conditions cannot be denied insurance coverage.
All insurance companies must offer 10 essential health benefits, including maternity care and preventative services.
Insurance companies are also barred from setting a limit on how much they have to pay to cover someone.
