Description

This report describes a comparative analysis of three proposals to allow Americans to keep their existing health plans under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The proposals are evaluated based on their potential impact on the ACA-compliant market and the cost and coverage of health insurance. The possibility of each proposal causing a “death spiral” in the ACA-compliant market is also addressed.
