The Republican National Convention pulled up stakes after it concluded yesterday, but a visitor to the convention floor says that the Affordable Care Act is here to stay.
In an interview with CBS This Morning, Cleveland Clinic Chief Executive Officer Toby Cosgrove, M.D., said that it was unlikely that the ACA would be uprooted, even if Republican Donald J. Drumpf is elected President and there are GOP majorities in both houses of Congress.
“I don’t think you will see something now six years into the process totally dismantled,” Cosgrove said, adding that the healthcare reform law has led to insurance coverage for 20 million more Americans. Cosgrove suggested that it was more likely that the ACA would undergo continuing improvements such as “more wellness activities.”
