Medicare Buy-in for All

A Medicare buy-in would give Americans immediate access to affordable, quality health care. Many states are refusing to participate in the Medicaid expansion and did not or will not create health exchanges. Given that many Americans will need taxpayer subsidies to buy health insurance coverage as required by the ACA mandate, a Medicare buy-in would send taxpayer subsidies back to the federal treasury instead of further enriching for-profit health insurance companies who are the root cause of our escalating health care costs and diminishing health care quality.
