Republicans are proposing a series of healthcare reforms aimed at empowering patients and improving affordability, including expanding price transparency, modernizing Obamacare subsidies, and strengthening safety net programs.
The healthcare industry is facing a crisis of affordability, and the American people are taking notice. According to recent polling by America's New Majority Project, a project of Gingrich 360, 59% of voters say healthcare has become more expensive under President Joe Biden. Republicans are proposing a series of reforms to address this issue and put patients back in control of their healthcare.
Price transparency is essential for patients to make informed decisions about their care. Republicans propose to strengthen and expand former President Donald Trump's price transparency executive orders for providers and payers. This will make it easier for patients to understand the costs of their care and compare options.

Beyond price, patients also need access to high-quality care. Republicans aim to improve patient outcomes by incentivizing providers to deliver better results and providing patients with more information about quality measures.
Republican reforms focus on reducing costs for patients. This includes expanding the use of portable subsidies, allowing patients to use government subsidies for any state-approved insurance plan. Additionally, Republicans propose modernizing Medicaid to prioritize care for the working poor and disabled, while establishing work requirements to encourage individuals to contribute to their healthcare.

At the heart of the Republican healthcare plan is the belief that patients and doctors should be in charge of healthcare decisions, not government bureaucrats or insurance companies. The reforms aim to reduce the regulatory burden on providers and increase flexibility for patients.
Employers play a significant role in healthcare costs. Republicans propose providing employers with more transparency into healthcare costs, allowing them to negotiate better rates with providers.

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) allow individuals to save for healthcare expenses tax-free. Republicans propose expanding the use of HSAs by making them portable and increasing the contribution limits.
Republicans recognize the importance of safety net programs like Medicaid for the most vulnerable populations. However, they propose prioritizing care for the working poor and disabled, while addressing concerns about program enrollment and access to quality care.
