Republicans want their own National Health Plan The pledge does not say the Republicans will repeal Obamacare because it is unconstitutional. It says: “Because the new health care law kills jobs, raises taxes, and increases the cost of health care, we will immediately take action to repeal this law." The Republicans intend to help states maintain subsidized insurance pools for high-risk insurees and mandate that health insurance companies cover people with pre-existing conditions while prohibiting health insurance companies from imposing annual or lifetime caps on how much they will pay out in benefits to people they insure. “Health care should be accessible for all, regardless of pre-existing conditions or past illnesses,” says the Republican pledge. “We will expand state high-risk pools, reinsurance programs and reduce the cost of coverage. We will make it illegal for an insurance company to deny coverage to someone with prior coverage on the basis of a pre-existing condition, eliminate annual and lifetime spending caps, and prevent insurers from dropping your coverage just because you get sick. We will incentivize states to develop innovative programs that lower premiums and reduce the number of uninsured Americans.” The Republican pledge cites the “individual mandate” in Obamacare as a violation of President Barack Obama’s promise not to raise taxes on people earning under $250,000 per year, but does not cite the individual mandate as a violation of the constitutional limits on federal power. Numerous states have joined with Florida in suing the government in federal court claiming that the Constitution does not give the federal government the authority to force individuals to buy health insurance. cnsnews.com I'd guess that they could've easily gotten most of this into the administration bill. I bet some mandate will remain, probably on the individual and not the business owner.
