The Republican’s replacement plan for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) could leave a total of 52 million people uninsured by 2026, according to an analysis from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). In contrast, 28 million people would be uninsured if the law was left as written.
In just one year the CBO, a nonpartisan office, predicts 14 million more people will be uninsured than if the ACA were to be left in place.
Some Republicans have attacked the report, while others have now raised concerns about the American Health Care Act (AHCA) as currently written.
