Trump to Slash ObamaCare Outreach Funding


The Trump Administration announced Thursday that it is Cutting Funding for ObamaCare Enrollment Outreach.

Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Officials said Funding for Advertising and other Outreach for ObamaCare Enrollment will be Cut from $100 Million last year to $10 Million this year. An HHS Official argued the Administration is seeing "diminishing returns" from ObamaCare Spending. 

The Administration will still be spending some Money on Signing People up for the Law, despite its Opposition to ObamaCare. Officials also announced they are Cutting Funding for "Navigators," which are Outside Organizations that help sign People up. Funding will be Proportional to how Navigators have fared in hitting their Enrollment Target the previous year. If a group signed up 70% of their Target, they will get 70% of the Funding. An HHS Official said this System means Navigators will be "held accountable."
