No, I am talking about the “Republican” version. They are going to levy a huge fine against anyone who goes without insurance for more than 63 days. Anyone who goes beyond 63 days without insurance, may never be able to get back in the market again. That’s a mandate with far more teeth than the empty threats of the Democrat ACA.
My understanding is that they are going to allow insurance companies to charge a fee for those with a lapse in coverage. That’s the only way to keep people from waiting until they get sick to buy insurance.
This plan isn’t the greatest, but it is a step in the right direction given that there will never be enough conservative republicans in office to undo everything Obamacare did.
Show me that in the legislation.
