Back to the future with ACA Catastrophic Coverage Plans?
Insurers want to change President Barack Obama’s health care law to provide financial assistance for people buying bare-bones coverage. That would entice the healthy and the young, the industry says, holding down premiums.

So-called catastrophic plans are currently not eligible for the law’s subsidies, and only 2 percent of the 8 million consumers who signed up this year picked one.
Such subsidies bring down the cost of monthly premiums; of course.

King v. Burwell (and Adler v. Bagley)
When the Supreme Court granted King v. Burwell status, Nicholas Bagley accepted an invitation from the Federalist Society to debate the merits of the case with Jonathan Adler, one of the architects of the litigation.
He thought it was worth explaining to a skeptical audience that, on the best reading of the ACA, tax credits are available in states that declined to establish their own exchanges.
A video from that debate has now been posted:
If nothing else, the debate offers a preview of the arguments that we’re likely to see on March 4 2015, when the case will be argued at the Supreme Court.
