The temporary [larger] subsidies help those who have been priced out and make it easier to afford lower-deductible health plans.
Biden s other health-care-related ideas such as lowering the Medicare eligibility age to 60 from 65 and creating a public health option are not included in his new legislative proposal, called the American Families Plan. The provision to lock in the enhanced premium subsidies would cost an estimated $200 billion.
