Health Care Policy

By Emily Jashinsky: Given these clear cut asks from Freedom Caucus leaders, Trump should know exactly what he needs to do to earn the group’s support.

By Charles Hughes: Patients are often insulated from the cost of health care services and at an informational disadvantage.

By Willis L. Krumholz: The Ryan Plan is dead. It’s time to figure out how conservatives can actually fix our health care woes, and not just put another Band-Aid on the problem.

By Ann Coulter: How to save American health care in one easy step.

By Steven Tucker: There is nothing in the AHCA that Conservatives should have disagreed with if they would have actually taken the time to read it.

By Allahpundit: How do you craft a bill that’s sufficiently fiscally spare to satisfy conservatives and sufficiently generous to satisfy centrists and populists?

By Robert Zubrin: Reforms that nibble around the edges of the system just won’t do; it’s time for a bolder reimagining of American health care.

By Susan Jones: “I don’t want us to become a factionalized majority. … And that means we’re going to sit down and talk things out until we get there. And that’s exactly what we’re doing.”

By Scott Ehrlich: Enacting these policies would put Democrats in a huge political bind, similar to President Trump co-opting some of their issues in his campaign.

By John Ellis: The failure of the AHCA was Ryan’s failure, not Trump’s: all of Trump’s negotiating skills and heroic efforts could not redeem the mess that Ryan had created.

By Daniel John Sobieski: I advise the GOP to learn from history and, in this case, try to repeat it. There is a Plan B waiting to be passed. Pass it.
