Abstract
Healthcare reform in the form of Medicare for All, which promises to reduce health care spending by reimbursing providers at Medicare’s rates per procedure, is now receiving renewed interest. This, along with the delay of the ‘Cadillac Tax,’ a provision of the Affordable Care Act that was created to tax employer-sponsored health insurance plans whose premiums exceeded specified thresholds, both have long run implications. In this issue of PERCspectives on Policy, authors Dennis W. Jansen, Liqun Liu, and Andrew J. Rettenmaier examine how each fit in the current debate and their potential effects on federal spending, revenues and deficits.
