Short Abstract:

HCAN strongly supports the provisions in the draft bill that make health insurance and health care services more affordable. In particular, premium assistance, reduced cost-sharing, and application of an out-of-pocket cap are central to making health care accessible to low-income individuals and families. Also, we commend you for your leadership in extending assistance in purchasing health insurance to working families who have seen health costs increase four times faster than wages.
