A March madness score that doesn’t involve college basketball.
This week, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is expected to “score” the proposed bill that U.S. House representatives have released to replace the Affordable Care Act. The CBO score will calculate the cost of the American Health Care Act, as well as how many Americans would lose health coverage under it. According to its website, each year the CBO “provides the Congress with several hundred formal cost estimates that analyze the likely effects of proposed legislation on the federal budget.”
