Exactly what coverage is available to Congress? Mmmmm.....

INSURANCE FAQs
Members of Congress & Staff

https://www.opm.gov/healthcare-insurance/insurance-faqs/?cid=6bf9dd32-d3b9-4fc7-9416-431e535f933a

Health coverage for members of Congress/Staff provided through Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) administered by DC Health Benefit Exchange Authority
_______

DC – Members of Congress

https://www.uhc.com/employer/small-business/shop/congress/congress-2017

BROCHURE 2017
https://www.uhc.com/content/dam/uhcdotcom/en/shop-marketplace/Congress-SHOP-Brochure-2017.pdf

pg 6- begins plan comparisons & rates

No Bronze or Silver plans-reserved for us commoners

Compare coverage their premiums buy against what our premiusm do not

______
https://www.opm.gov/healthcare-insurance/changes-in-health-coverage/eligibility-enrollment/#url=Members-of-CongressStaff

On bottom of page is premium contribution calculator
Not sure if that is the same rate for Members or just their staff

Bottom line- I want to buy into their healthcare plan because inside the beltway my $$$ buys a gold plan with better coverage & lower (way lower) deductibles

Judging from the buzz I’m hearing on several other sites, a couple of them left of Trotsky, this may be the most popular thing Trump has done since he’s been in office. Murphy is free to explain just how awful the plan is that he just voted to keep in place. I’ll put a sponge on my shoulder to collect the tears.

Thank you!

It’s interesting that Senator Murphy views being forced onto the Obamacare Exchange as being cut off from healthcare.

Freudian slip? It’s a rare and inadvertent moment of candor, regardless.
