NDNRC Releases Statement on Preserving ACA Protections

November 30, 2016 by NDNRC

Today, the NDNRC is releasing a statement entitled “Preserve the Protections Provided by the Affordable Care Act” where we call on the incoming Congress and Trump Administration to preserve key protections provided in the ACA which have a direct effect on people with disabilities. These protections include:

  1. Prohibition against denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions
  2. Guaranteed renewability of coverage
  3. Prohibition against individual underwriting
  4. Essential health benefits required in every qualified health plan
  5. Prohibition against lifetime monetary caps
  6. Prohibition against discrimination in health programs
  7. Extension of the mental health parity to the individual and small group market
  8. Medicaid expansion

The full statement can be found in our Materials section, where it is also available in a PDF download, by clicking here.
