Could be interesting.

There are a lot of components of ObamaCare that are NOT written into law but rather were handed to bureaucrats to write as regulations. That opens up possibilities for changes that don't rely on the Congress.

Now Reuters is reporting that Sen. Rand Paul spoke with President Trump about using executive orders to make some changes that could create more competition within the insurance industry, something that ObamaCare has effectively squashed.

Depending upon how this plays out, it could be very interesting, wonderful, or horrible.

Trump studying executive action on healthcare, senator Rand Paul says

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Senator Rand Paul said he spoke to President Donald Trump by phone about healthcare reform on Monday and told the president he thought Trump had the authority to create associations that would allow organizations to offer group health insurance plans.

Paul, a Republican, told reporters that Trump was considering taking some form of executive action to address problems with the healthcare system after the Senate failed last week to pass a measure to reform the system.

Allowing groups like AARP, which represents retirees, to form health associations could enable individuals and small businesses to form larger groups to negotiate with health insurance companies for lower rates.
