What's next at the national level with health care reform?

The Colorado Health Policy Coalition shared this on Wednesday:

"As promised, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released their revised analysis of the American Health Care Act (AHCA) based on the bill as it passed the House. You can read the analysis here: https://www.cbo.gov/publication/52752

As compared to analysis of the earlier version of the AHCA, the CBO found that this version of the bill would reduce the federal deficit by $119 billion - an amount $32 billion less than earlier versions of the bill. The number of uninsured Americans would be 23 million higher than projections of coverage under current law, representing a slightly lower increase in the number of uninsured Americans than what was projected under the previous version of the AHCA.

The analysis offers helpful insight into the nature of coverage and likely impacts on market stability."
