CMS NEWS – Senate Version of Trump’s Policy Bill Would Slash Medicaid Spending Even More


Alternative Headline: GOP Bill Cuts $1.1 Trillion

[MM Curator Summary]: The Senate GOP bill would cut over $1.1 trillion in health programs and leave nearly 12 million more Americans uninsured by 2034. 

==============================

G.O.P. Bill Has $1.1 Trillion in Health Cuts and 11.8 Million Losing Care, C.B.O. Says

Analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office found that Republicans’ new version of the legislation would make far deeper cuts and lead to more people becoming uninsured than previous proposals.

Republicans’ marquee domestic policy bill that is making its way through the Senate would result in deeper cuts and more Americans losing health insurance coverage than the original measure that passed the House last month, according to new estimates from the Congressional Budget Office.

According to a report published late Saturday night, the legislation would mean 11.8 million more Americans would become uninsured by 2034. Federal spending on Medicaid, Medicare and Obamacare would be reduced by more than $1.1 trillion over that period — with more than $1 trillion of those cuts coming from Medicaid alone.
