Anyone who has ever had to handle their own appeals or challenge a charge should know immediately that this is a ridiculous proposal.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"
