Bessent says health-care announcement coming this week
The White House plans a two-year Affordable Care Act subsidy extension with new eligibility limits, delayed due to GOP opposition amid concerns of premium cost impact, says Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
- The Trump White House plans to announce a healthcare policy framework aimed at lowering costs and extending expiring Obamacare subsidies, according to reports.
- The framework may include a two-year extension of enhanced premium tax credits that would otherwise expire, as stated by MS Now and Politico.
- The Congressional Budget Office found these reforms could lower healthcare premiums by 12.7 percent and reduce costs significantly.
- The proposal aims to help nearly 22 million Americans who may face more than double their premiums next year if the subsidies lapse, according to KFF data.
