🚨 HEAD'S UP: The #SCOTUS may rule on the GOP #TexasFoldEm lawsuit to strike down the entire #ACA as soon as...WEDNESDAY???
acasignups.net/21/01/29/updat…
TO BE CLEAR: The oral arguments in the #TexasFoldEm case *appeared* to go very poorly for the GOP plaintiffs; even Justice ALITO seemed awfully skeptical of their reasoning...
acasignups.net/20/11/11/texas…
...HOWEVER, as @jrovner noted:
Ironically, I have a medical appointment which can’t be rescheduled on Wednesday morning, which means if they *do* issue the ruling on the ACA, I’ll be unable to post anything about it until that afternoon.
For those who've asked whether Congress could pass one of the 3 bills to resolve the issue (if necessary) *after* SCOTUS issues their decision: I've been told that it's possible SCOTUS would put a stay on their decision (whatever it is) but that it's unlikely.
Sure enough, here's the SCOTUS page for Wednesday, Feb. 3rd. I don't know where @shermancourt got his info that they'll be giving opinions specifically on fall/winter 2020 cases, but I assume he's confident about that.
As for what happens (and when it happens) *if* #SCOTUS were to strike down the #ACA and *didn't* issue a stay of their ruling, it's not pretty. At all.

📣 UPDATE: 2021 #ACA Open Enrollment is (mostly) BACK, BABY! Here's 7 important things to remember:
acasignups.net/21/01/28/updat…
1. DON'T MISS THE DEADLINE!
This one is a bit confusing at the moment. HC.gov is re-launching Open Enrollment for the uninsured from 2/15 - 5/15 across 36 states; other states have...varying deadlines (see link for updates)
2. MAKE SURE YOU ENROLL IN AN #ACA-COMPLIANT PLAN!
Make sure to enroll using an official #ACA exchange *or* an authorized partner which *only* offers ACA-compliant policies!

📣 BOOM!! @POTUS Biden orders HC.gov enrollment re-opened starting 2/15 & MUCH more!
acasignups.net/21/01/28/boom-…
For starters, he's explicitly telling HC.gov to re-launch Open Enrollment from 2/15 - 5/15. This includes 36 states; another 3 states (NY, MD, MA) have already re-opened enrollment thru March.

HOWEVER, there's MUCH more good stuff as well! 2/
Assuming I'm interpreting the XO correctly, it appears to include:
--Good riddance to Medicaid work requirements!
--Reversing Trump Admin's horrible 1332 waiver "definition" which lets states blow off patient protections
--Reversing Trump's flooding of the market w/#ShortAssPlans

As I said in my thread: Even under the BEST case scenario we’re likely looking at Thanksgiving before we’re out of this mess. Don’t be shocked at several hundred thousand more COVID deaths even if the new administration does everything perfectly AND there’s full compliance.
Here’s one possible scenario: A precise 2% daily drop in new cases each & every day starting on February 1st. Result if that played out? A total of 700,000 dead Americans by Thanksgiving. (405K pre-1/20/21, 295K post 1/20/21).

acasignups.net/21/01/21/sigh-…
Assuming this projection model is accurate, we’re looking at around 5,000 Americans dying on or around 1/29, after which I presume it starts to drop off.
