Blunt: Even President Clinton “Acknowledges Obamacare for the Nightmare It Is”
"Former
In December of last year, Blunt voted to repeal the president's health care law, and outlined several solutions that would lower costs and improve access for families, including:
* Expanding access to Health Savings Accounts and allowing qualified participants to use HSAs to pay for premiums;
* Allowing small businesses to pool together to offer affordable insurance options to employees;
* Enacting meaningful medical liability reform to reduce malpractice insurance costs, leading to increased access for patients;
* Allowing consumers to buy insurance across state lines;
* Expanding and reforming high-risk pools to provide insurance options for people with pre-existing conditions;
* Promoting prevention and wellness programs by giving employers greater flexibility to reward employees who adopt healthier lifestyles;
* Prohibiting insurers from cancelling a policy unless a person commits fraud or conceals material facts about a health condition;
* Prohibiting insurance plans from instituting annual or lifetime spending limits; and
* Implementing fair tax treatment for people who don't receive their insurance at work.
