Health Care Reform

The Internal Revenue Service has announced that tax returns filed electronically in 2018 will be rejected if they do not contain the information about whether the filer has coverage.

A federal judge appears to be sympathetic to the idea of granting a temporary restraining order that would force the administration of President Donald Trump to continue to make Affordable Care Act cost-sharing reduction subsidy payments.

The bill introduced by Tennessee Republican Lamar Alexander and Washington Democrat Patty Murray has all 48 Senate Democrats backing it along with 12 Republicans, Schumer said on NBCs Meet the Press on Sunday.

Though insurers have not yet unveiled premium rates for the 2018 ACA exchange, analysts trying to make sense of the latest health care changes predict increases in premiums could have moderate- and low-income consumers actually coming out ahead.

Nearly a score of state attorneys general asked a federal judge in California on Wednesday to temporarily block the Trump administration from ending critical subsidy payments to insurers selling coverage through the Affordable Care Act.

Common ground has repeatedly proved illusory in the health-care debate. The latest bipartisan deal to stabilize Obamacares exchanges is turning out to be no exception to this rule.
