Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE
This act may be cited as The Repeal of the Affordable Care Act of 2015.
SECTION 2. FINDINGS
Congress hereby finds and declares that,
1) People are very limited in their choice of health care providers.
2) Wait times are expected to increase significantly if the United States continues on this path.
3) The system is dependent on millennials to enroll and they are not enrolling.
4) Due to the fact that the Affordable Care Act covers a large range of expenses, employees of
companies that use the Affordable Care Act coverage will be more likely to demand frivolous services that cost way
more than they are worth.
5) The Affordable Care Act delivers very bad quality care.
6) People lose the incentive to find the cheapest health care when most of it is being paid for by somebody else in the
form of taxation.
7) The Affordable Care Act mandates that an extensive amount of services be provided and paid for by the public
even though they may not be necessary.
8) Health care organizations lose the incentive to make better quality care because the government subsidizes their
loses.
9) The Affordable Care Act says that only U.S. citizens and legal residents are eligible for health care, but in 2014 the
majority of the 400,000 people who lost their health care were citizens.
10) The I.P.A.B., which is the committee in charge of cost control, may save money by not paying doctors as much
which will decrease the amount of doctors.
SECTION 3. STATUTORY LANGUAGE
A) This bill will repeal the Affordable Care Act and all of its amendments. 30 days before this goes into effect,
insurance companies must send their clients a letter offering them their previous health care plans and a list of three
different plans as options. If they choose to do so, clients may negotiate with the insurance company for a different
plan not included as options in the letter.
B) The Affordable Care Act will be replaced by a privatized version where insurance companies will compete to
supply the best and least expensive health care according to an individuals needs. In order to take into account those
who cannot afford health care, tax benefits will be given to any corporation that donates money to a health care
organization. Health care organizations must set aside this money in order to supply health care at significantly lower
cost only for those with demonstrated need who do not qualify for Medicare. Donated money is prohibited to be
spent anywhere else by the health care organization and must be reported in the organizations tax statement so that it
can be monitored by the IRS. However, the donated money itself is untaxable.
C) For the small margin of people with demonstrated need who do not qualify or did not receive the lower-cost
health care provided by private health care organizations and do not qualify for Medicare, a committee under the
Department of Health and Human Services shall be established to administer single use vouchers usable only for
health care. The name of this committee will be the Uninsured Peoples Committee (UPC). This committee will use
10% of the health care budget (113 billion dollars) for these single use vouchers. This bill will go into effect on May
1st, 2016 which means health insurance companies must notify their clients of their options by April 1 st, 2016.
