“I think that's a much more attractive vision for healthcare than the Washington-driven, top-down Obamacare that is causing so many millions to hurt,” he said.īut he made no mention of key affordability and portability provisions that conservative policy experts support and that have been included in previous healthcare reform proposals by Republican members of Congress. The Texas senator said during the GOP presidential debate Thursday in Des Moines, Iowa, that he wants to “delink health insurance from employment, so if you lose your job, your health insurance goes with you, and it is personal, portable and affordable.” But if the Texas senator's “ Health Care Choice Act of 2015” became law, most Americans would have fewer options of affordable coverage outside of employment.ĭuring the debate, Cruz, who's neck and neck with Donald Trump in the Iowa polls preceding Monday's Iowa presidential caucuses, vowed to “repeal every word of Obamacare.” He then cited three pet conservative reforms he favors–allowing insurers to sell plans across state lines, expanding health savings accounts, and severing the link between coverage and employment.

There's a big disconnect between Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz's promise to make health insurance more portable and affordable and what he's actually proposed so far.
