ACS manages 2017 legislative gains despite Hill focus on ACA repeal, tax reform

[摘要] Congress concluded 2017 with a landmark vote on a tax package that contained a repeal of the individual health insurance coverage mandate in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2019. This action represents the most the Republicans could agree to in their efforts to repeal and replace the ACA—after years of health care debate marked by the divisive politics that accompanied any discussions surrounding “Obamacare.” And while repeal of the individual mandate does undo a key component of the ACA, it is likely that additional efforts to repeal, adjust, or improve other portions of the ACA will occur in 2018.
