Today President Trump will lay out his vision for health care—and he's right to address it.

Health care is a top issue for Americans because Obamacare has not delivered on its promises to lower costs or increase choices.

There is a plan to improve health care.

The 2020 #HealthCareChoices proposal would leave Americans better off in at least 10 ways:

First, it empowers Americans to keep their health coverage and doctors when they change or lose a job.

It also would let low-income patients access better, private health plans.

Medical care is one of the few services where Americans don’t know the price of care until weeks or months after receiving it. Our proposal would save them money care and prescription drugs by making prices more transparent.

Too many patients face high medical bills they did not expect and did not agree to pay. The 2020 #HealthCareChoices proposal eliminates the risk of surprise medical bills through transparency and truth in advertising.

The plan eliminates regulatory barriers that keep Americans from being able to shop for value.

It would allow patients to benefit financially when they choose lower-cost, high-quality care by allowing them to put any savings into a health savings account.

This proposal breaks up the business-as-usual arrangements in insurance payments from the government so that Americans have better options, lower premiums, and better access to doctors if they get sick, have a preexisting condition, or need financial help.

This plan provides patients with access to specialized plans and care if they have a chronic illness.

And it empowers Americans with more options to get insurance and care that are tailored to their needs and those of their family.

Ultimately, the #HealthCareChoices proposal offers more choices, lower prices, and better quality—by removing barriers to innovation like telemedicine.

It encourages competitions so that patients can access even more options at better prices.
