UTrump Uvele Usayine i-Executive Order Yokuphindisela i-Obamacare
-Delile
UMongameli uDonald Trump wenza ngokusemthethweni izinyathelo zokuqeda umthetho we-Affordable Care Act (ACA), owaziwa nge-Obamacare. Ubelokhu ekhuluma ngokuchithwa kwe-ACA kusukela ngaphambi kokuthi abeke unyawo eHhovisi le-Oval. Futhi namuhla, usayine i-oda eliphezulu eliphawula isinyathelo sokuqala sokwenza lokho.
Isizinda esincane: Ngo-Mashi, amaRiphabhulikhi wethula umthethosivivinywa wabo wokuqala wokunakekelwa kwezempilo, i-American Health Care Act (AHCA). Indlu Yabamele yaphasisa kancane i-AHCA ngasekupheleni kuka-Ephreli. Ngokushesha ngemuva kwalokho, amaSenator aseRiphabhulikhi anquma ukuzenzela okwabo, futhi amemezela uhlelo lokuzibhalela umthethosivivinywa wokuguqula ukunakekelwa kwezempilo: i-Better Care Reconciliation Act (BCRA). ISenate yehlule i-BCRA kabili ehlobo, yabe sehlula ezinye izinhlobo ezintathu zemithethosivivinywa yokuguqula ukunakekelwa kwezempilo kanye (lokho okubizwa ngokuthi ukukhishwa okuyingxenye, ukukhishwa "okuncane" nokuchithwa kukaGraham-Cassidy).
UTrump uzwakalise ukukhungatheka kwakhe ngokubambezeleka. Ngo-Okthoba 10, ubhale kuTwitter wathi, "Njengoba iCongress ingakwazi ukuhlangana kuHealthCare, ngizobe ngisebenzisa amandla wepeni ukunikeza impilo enhle kubantu abaningi - FAST." Kwathi ngomhlaka 12, wasayina i-oda eliphezulu.
Manje-ke, yini ezokwenziwa yile oda ephezulu? Ngokuvamile, i-oda lisusa futhi liguqula imithethonqubo ebekwe yi-ACA. UTrump uthi uzosiza ukukhulisa ukuncintisana namanani omshuwalense aphansi, kanye nokunikeza "ukukhululeka" ezigidini zabantu baseMelika nge-Obamacare. Abagxeki bathi lezi zinguquko zingakhuphula izindleko zabathengi abanezimo ezibucayi zezempilo futhi zithumele abomshwalense ababaleka emakethe yezomthetho.
Into eyodwa ejwayelekile kulo lonke ibhodi ngalezi zinguquko ezihlongozwayo zokunakekelwa kwezempilo kuyisongo esibi kumalungelo abesifazane okuzala nawokuvimbela ezempilo. ICYMI, abaphathi bakaTrump basanda kukhipha umthetho omusha onikeza abaqashi imvume yokungabandakanyi ukuvimbela inzalo ezinhlelweni zomshuwalense wezempilo nganoma yisiphi isizathu senkolo noma sokuziphatha-isinyathelo esikhulu sokuhlehla ku-ACA, eyagunyaza ukuthi abaqashi benza inzuzo bahlanganise uhla olugcwele lwezinketho zokulawula ukuzalwa. (kusuka kuma-IUD kuye ku-Plan B) ngaphandle kwezindleko ezengeziwe kwabesifazane. I-AHCA ehlongozwayo izophinde yenyuse izindleko zokunakekelwa kwezempilo zokuvikela kwabesifazane ngezinsizakalo ezifana ne-mammograms kanye ne-pap smear. (Lesi esinye sezizathu ezenza ukuthi ama-ob-gyns angacabangi ngombono wezempilo yabesifazane eminyakeni emine ezayo.)
Yi-TBD impela ukuthi isenzo sikamongameli sakamuva sikaTrump sizosho ukuthini ekunakekelweni kwezempilo kwaseMelika-yize singeke sibe nomthelela omkhulu ngaphambi kokuthi kuqale isizini elandelayo yokubhalisa evulekile ye-Obamacare ngenyanga ezayo.
