* Insurers would be able to charge older consumers five times more than younger consumers
So at a time when income is decreasing or lost, your health insurance will go up 5x
* A fixed "per capita cap" or a "block grant" would replace the decades-old current Medicaid system. Each state would have a fixed amount of money every year. That amount would increase annually by a percentage linked to the inflation rate
Does this adjust to the population shifts that also put more people into retirement and dependent on Medicaid. Also, what if inlation of health care exceeds the inflation rate?
What happens after 2020.
