.@somuchweirdness suggests I explain how Trump stopping CSR payments actually effects ppl.

Because I always listen, will tweet that soon.1/
CSR payments reduce the size of deducts & co-pays for low income exchange consumers.

Insurers who participate must continue 2 pay them.2/

BREAKING: I have had some conversations about the ACA repeal vote and the Arizona Senate seat which I will attach as a thread here shortly.

Follow if interested.
On ACA repeal, everyone from Trump to Senate leaders have made it clear that as soon as they have the votes to repeal the ACA, they will do it.

As of a year ago, they had 49 votes for a repeal vote— one short with Pence as the tiebreaker. 2/
Since then, two things have changed. The Republicans lost a repeal vote in Alabama and the anti-repeal side lost a no vote when John McCain passed away.

Doug Jones is a clear no vote. What about Arizona...? 3/

Trump wants health insurers not to have to cover pre-existing conditions. It’s cheaper.

Explaining this to people who don’t remember insurance before ACA is difficult. A young man last night asked me why he would buy a bus ticket if the bus company didn’t have to have busses. 1/
My explanation: insurance before the ACA was designed for the needs of insurance companies. The principal design was how to protect their profits.

The principal change of the ACA was to reverse it— to protect consumers w standard benefits, no lifetime caps & pre-ex. 2/
This makes sense to the majority of Americans.👇 3/

September 6, 2018 is setting up to be D-Day in Trump’s war to take health care protections from millions of Americans.

Amidst the distractions, no major news outlet is focusing on it.

1/
Two major things happen September 6 both highly connected.

-President Trump has instructed his Justice Department to not contest a case that would make the ACA illegal. (See next tweet...)
-The Supreme Court Justice who could likely decide this case begins his hearings.

2/
The court case will be heard by a former staffer of TX Senator John Cornyn. The impact is pretty straightforward. 👇

NEW HEALTH CARE NEWS: Today we unite with 280 hospitals to transform care delivery for underserved Americans— focusing on bringing the country’s best resources to meet their health & social needs.

forbes.com/sites/michelat…
These hospitals represent 5% of our care delivery and will expand to more and have a focus on treating vulnerable populations.

Work is getting started in key areas: improving care to women & infants, mental health, substance abuse, and creating care sources outside the ER.
Many places are already doing some great innovative things that work. But it doesn’t spread around the country to touch everyone. That’s part of the goal.

This is something @GeisingerHealth does to keep people healthier. They don’t prescribe drugs. They prescribe healthy food.👇

It has been 6 months since we launched @USofCare. Today we celebrate by visiting our 4th state: UT, NC, NM. Now MN.

We begin the same in every state— meeting families and health care advocates this AM.

Thank you for all the support & encouragement to get everyone health care.
@USofCare We met with the @ThisIsMedicaid to kick off our 2 days in Minnesota where we will meet with over 200 people across the state.

@usofcare always starts with patients and families.

We met with the Chambwr leaders from around the state of Minnesota. Small business owners in the state want to provide good coverage but, like the rest of us, feel victim to health care costs and politics they can’t control.

BREAKING: If you missed it, Trumpcare plans were announced today.👇 They are a flashback set to bring us back to pre-ACA days and damage the ACA in the process.

Been collecting inout all day so now will cover this. Follow if interested. 1/

THE MOST UNDER-REPORTED SIGNIFICANT FACT:

-ACA requires 80% of your premiums to cover your medical expenses.

-Trumpcare has NO requirement. Expect about half of your premium to cover health care. The difference— marketing and profits.

This is a boon to insurance companies.2/
The big advertised benefit of these plans is they cost less.

Trump Administration brags they could cost 50, even 80% less. Gee, I wonder how they do that? While spending 1/2 as much on medical care?

Let me think. Might they be providing only 10-25% on insurance benefits?... 3/
