Washington - President Joe Biden took action this Thursday so that more people have medical insurance while the Coronavirus pandemic is strong, an advance to his promise that there is coverage for all.
The president signed an executive order that will reopen the Healthcare markets.GOV (Conducesalud.Gov for the site in Spanish), something that Donald Trump's government refused to do.He also took measures aimed at reversing other predecessor policies, even in the issue of abortion.
"There is nothing new that we are doing here apart from reinstating the affordable and medical health care law to the way they were before Trump became president," Biden said as he signed the directives in the Oval Office.
And he added that I was reversing "the attack of my predecessor to the health of women".
Desempleo en la pandemia9 Abr, 2020The most short -term concrete impact of Biden's executive orders will come from the reopening of Healthcare insurance markets.Gov, because coverage has been reduced to economic agitation derived from pandemic.That new “special registration period” of three months would begin on February 15.
Biden promised to take advantage of the health law promoted by former president Barack Obama to ensure that all Americans have health coverage.But to do that, you will need the approval of Congress, and many Republicans oppose.
Created under the affordable health care law also known as "Obamacare", markets offer subsidized coverage by taxpayers regardless of the medical history of a person or pre-existing conditions, including COVID-19.
Las acciones ejecutivas ponen fin al uso de prisiones privadas por parte del Departamento de Justicia.The Obama's Medical Attention Law covers more than 23 million people through a combination of subsidized private insurance sold in all states, and extended Medicaid adopted by 38 states, being the southern states the main exception.Coverage is available for people who do not have work -based medical insurance, and Medicaid expansion is aimed at people with low income.
Biden also reversed a federal policy that prohibits taxpayers financing for international non -profit medical care organizations offering counseling or abortion references.
He also rescinds Trump's regulations that prohibit family planning clinics financed with federal funds reporting abortion.
BIDEN EN LA CASA BLANCA27 Ene, 2021These actions will bring praise from women's defending groups, as well as the condemnation of social and religious conservatives.With Trump, abortion opponents had a loose rein to rewriting federal policy and now the political pendulum is going back.
Biden order would directly affect Healthcare.GOV, the federal insurance market that currently serves 36 states.The market concluded a successful annual registration season in December, with a growth of around 7% in registration by 2021.The final figures for this year that include insurance markets directly managed by states will be available soon.
It is likely that the opening of insurance markets will also be a greater registration in Medicaid, since the people who qualify for that program are automatically referred.
This year a decision of the Supreme Court is expected on Trump's final legal challenge to Obamacare.
