New deal to repeal Obamacare emerges

A new deal to repeal Obamacare would let insurers charge more if states get a waiver, but it is not clear if the deal will be enough to sway centrist Republicans in the House.

The deal was outlined in an amendment to the American Health Care Act, an Obamacare repeal deal that was pulled last month due to insufficient support. The amendment would let states opt out of requiring insurers to cover essential health benefits such as maternity care or hospitalization.
