Back in January, we reported on Idaho's decision to circumvent the #ACA by allowing carriers "to sell cheap policies that ditch key provisions of the Affordable Care Act."
At the time, we wondered how that would play out from DC's perspective.
Well, now we know:
"CMS Rejects Idaho Proposal for non-Affordable Care Act Plans"
Ooops.
CMS honcho Seema Verma [ed: which would be a great name for a rock band] points out (correctly) that ObamaCare "remains the law, and we have a duty to enforce and uphold [it]."
So that's that.
For now, anyway.
