For those of you following the ACA repeal -- and especially the critical issue of preexisting condition coverage for our T1s -- this New York Times column is worth a read: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/23/...-left-region&WT.nav=opinion-c-col-left-region Among other things, this article reports that the Senate Finance committee has solicited "stakeholder" feedback, with today being the requested submission date for comments to this email address: HealthReform@finance.senate.gov .
Great article, thanks or sharing! Too bad I am seeing this after the feedback date. I'm hoping the jarring numbers from the CBO report would be enough to sink this, but maybe I am being naive.
