So here we go, courtesy of USA Today.
new waiver rules today designed to give states greater freedom in developing their own health care systems and policies.
Blah, blah, blah.
States that request an "Innovation Waiver" must still provide insurance as comprehensive as that available through health insurance exchanges – or the new private-insurance health exchanges; ensure coverage is at least as affordable as it would have been through a health exchange; provide coverage to at least as many residents as required by the federal law; and not increase the federal government.
More blah, blah, blah.
"At least as affordable".
Of course Obamacrap makes health insurance less affordable so this statement is meaningless.
"Not increase the federal government".
I suspect they mean not increase the federal deficit, which it won't unless the program uses federal taxpayer and Chinese dollars.
The waivers would be available for up to five years, she said.
So let me see if I got this.
States can apply for a waiver, invest their own money and hope the plan meets HHS approval.
If it doesn't they dismantle and start over, or rework it until someone up there likes it.
But even if it passes muster it might become invalidated in 5 years.
Who is going to sign up for that deal?
Only a politician . . .
