Major changes to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) are under consideration by Congress. Key proposals include requiring full repayment of excess subsidies, removing coverage for DACA recipients, and eliminating the "family glitch" rule.
Most significantly, enhanced pandemic-era subsidies will likely expire in 2025, potentially doubling premiums for many families. A family of four making $120,000 could see monthly premiums jump from $850 to $1,650.
These changes could reverse progress in reducing uninsured rates and significantly impact healthcare affordability for millions of Americans.
