Amodei issued a statement after voting for the Lower Health Care Premiums for All Americans Act. He said the bill would lower premiums and expand coverage options through prescription-drug price transparency, individual-market stabilization and greater flexibility for employers and workers.
The statement says cost-sharing reductions could lower premiums by 11% and reduce out-of-pocket costs, and estimates that about 40,000 Nevadans would qualify and Nevada ACA premiums would fall by $716 annually. It also describes new pharmacy-benefit-manager reporting requirements and expanded plan options for small businesses and independent workers.
