Republican Gov. Scott Walker (Wis.) received approval Sunday from the Trump administration to create a "reinsurance program" to help stabilize the Affordable Care Act's individual markets. Then Monday, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services cleared Maine to do the same.
Reinsurance programs are the unicorn of health care. While most things ACA-related incite partisan rancor, these programs are supported by Republicans and Democrats alike because they're a relatively simple fix to a complex problem.
