SUMMARY:Decoding the Moment: Obamacare Subsidies at a Crossroads
DESCRIPTION:Congress is debating whether to extend pandemic-era federal Obamacare subsidies that are set to expire at the end of the year. Without these enhanced subsidies\, experts estimate nearly 5 million people could become uninsured in 2026\, and premiums for those still buying coverage through the Affordable Care Act could jump an average of 75%. \nIn the next virtual event in the “Decoding the Moment” series presented by Tradeoffs and the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics at the University of Pennsylvania\, national experts Katherine Baicker and Jonathan Gruber will discuss why these subsidies were created\, the role they’ve played in helping Americans afford health insurance coverage\, and the tradeoffs federal policymakers should weigh as they explore options to provide coverage that is affordable for consumers and taxpayers. \nRead the event recap or watch the event recording below.\n \n\nSpeakers: \n\nKatherine Baicker\, Provost and Emmett Dedmon Distinguished Service Professor\, University of Chicago\nJonathan Gruber\, Ford Professor of Economics\, MIT\nDan Gorenstein\, Founder and Executive Editor\, Tradeoffs (Moderator)\n\n\nAbout the Decoding the Moment series \nThe Trump administration’s sweeping efforts to reshape federal health policy have created a fast-moving\, uncertain landscape for the health care sector and policymakers. In response\, Tradeoffs and Penn LDI launched the virtual event series\, “Decoding the Moment\,” to provide timely\, evidence-based discussions on key federal policy changes. Through conversations with leading experts\, this series explores the implications of recent actions and what they signal for the future.
