How about the House Republicans issue AN ALTERNATIVE to Obamacare. Call it the “40 Million Insured Act”.
It would have two parts.
The first part would be to repeal Obamacare.
The second part would be to allow ALL currently uninsured to enroll in Medicaid.
How about buying insurance across state lines.
Have tax free healthcare accounts.
Go after lawsuit abuse.
If Medicaid were made part of unemployment insurance, it would handle much of the "uninsured" (people no longer covered under prior employer's plan, and who can't afford to pay for COBRA). For people with prior health issues what make them uninsurable (ie, medical expenses would consume over 20% of gross income), also offer them Medicaid.
But that solution would not have the feds taking over a sixth of the economy.
