"Enhancements to ACA, Medicare and closing the Medicaid gap."
Sounds like it boils down to:
1. Making ARP subsidies permanent
2. Dental/Vision/Hearing for Medicare
3. Warnock/Ossoff/Baldwin Gap bill?
Wildcard: @SenatorSheehan's #S499 #SilverToGold, which could SAVE money!

The @UrbanInstitute recently estimated #S499 as costing around $350 billion net over a decade...but that *included* making the #AmRescuePlan's subsidies permanent, which are apparently already baked into the #AmFamiliesPlan regardless at an estimated cost of $163B. 1/
The rest of #SilverToGold would presumably cost ~$187 billion...but a more limited version might not end up costing anything net (instead of going to 85/90/95 AV, the upgrade might go to 90/95 only, with everyone over 300% FPL still getting a Gold 80 AV plan, for instance).
📣 IT'S OFFICIAL: #AmFamiliesPlan to *permanently* #KillTheCliff & #UpTheSubs. Make no mistake: This is still a #BFD.

NOTE: I'm switching from #AmFamiliesPlan to #AmFamPlan. Shorter, easier to type and it's alliterative!!
📣 REMINDER: Here's the @urbaninstitute's estimates of how much the uninsured rate would go down in every state if the expanded #ACA subsidies are made permanent: acasignups.net/21/04/16/urban…
📣 Ahead of tonight’s big speech: I have no idea if he’ll give an update on ACA enrollment, but if he does, I’m guessing he’ll announce over 1.0 million ADDITIONAL exchange enrollees via HealthCare.Gov alone since the relaunched enrollment period started on 2/15.
According to @JStein_WaPo, it sounds like Biden will be proposing $200B to make the expanded #ACA subsidies permanent, but no other major healthcare provisions *at the moment*. This actually makes more sense than you may think given this poll: acasignups.net/21/04/27/huh-s…
