Internists express relief over failure of latest ACA repeal bill

(American College of Physicians) The ACP today said that it is relieved that the Graham-Cassidy-Johnson-Heller (GCJH) proposal will not be considered on the floor of the Senate this week because of a lack of support for the measure. The proposal continued to fall far short of meeting the criteria that ACP established that any reforms to current law, including the ACA, the Medicaid program, and the Children's Health Insurance Program should first, do no harm to patients.
