BPC’s work will build upon a series of common themes that have animated both parties’ health care proposals, such as:
Policies that promote stable private insurance markets and include pre-existing condition protections

Approaches to affordability that do not over-subsidize higher-income Americans or under-subsidize lower-income Americans
Medicaid policies that expand administrative flexibility without creating financial risk for states, the federal government, or the beneficiaries of the program
