Many millennials have their hands full now, as they launch into adulthood — jobs, homes and partners. But 33-yr-old Ford Inbody is already thinking about a time when he won't be able to work. He has Parkinson's disease. Every night after work, he and his wife Cortney walk their two dogs through their neighborhood in Overland Park, Kan. For now, going out for an evening's stroll is easy. But many of their evening conversations revolve around a time they know is coming — when these walks will be more difficult. (Smith, 3/10)

Darvin Bentlage says his health insurance plan used to be the same as all the other cattle farmers in Barton County, Mo.: Stay healthy until he turned 65, then get on Medicare. But when he turned 50, things did not go according to plan. "Well, I had a couple of issues," he says. He's putting it mildly. (Sable-Smith, 3/12)

House Republicans’ health-care proposal is running into a new political problem: opposition from older people. One day after House GOP leaders unveiled their plan to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, AARP, the politically potent advocacy group for Americans over 50 years old, came out in opposition.

As the debate over the fate of ObamaCare rages on Capitol Hill, few groups have more at stake than the nation’s Hispanics. Hispanics benefited more than any other group from the Affordable Care Act (ACA), partly because they occupy many of the informal and transient jobs that didn't previously offer health coverage but were required to do so under President Obama's signature healthcare law. As the Republican-led Congress and the Trump administration discuss a replacement for the ACA, many Hispanic leaders are worried their communities could be forced out of coverage and back into emergency rooms for primary care.

As a bill to replace the Affordable Care Act, Obamacare, makes its way through Congress, entrepreneurs remind us that the federal health insurance marketplace has been a big help to them over the past few years — helping startups recruit talent and provide their workers with some security.

Groups representing doctors, nurses, hospitals, and consumers have all lined up against the Republican bill to replace the Affordable Care Act, or ACA, arguing that the proposed changes being debated in Congress would eliminate health care coverage and benefits for millions of Americans. But one group conspicuously absent from the ranks of the opposition has been the organization representing medical device makers, a large sector in Massachusetts, which last week came out in support of the GOP alternative, the American Health Care Act. (Weisman, 3/12)

They’re all Republicans who voted for Donald Trump. And they all have one other thing in common: They despise the Affordable Care Act — “Obamacare." They call it everything from “the Unaffordable Care Act” to un-American. But are they happy now that GOP leaders in the House of Representatives have finally announced their plan to replace the law? (Seipel, 3/11)

Progressive groups gearing up for another recess of combative town halls for Republican lawmakers say they’re getting new energy from the newly released House GOP ObamaCare replacement plan. Ahead of the April recess, groups like MoveOn.org and Indivisible are already protesting the legislation to repeal and replace ObamaCare. (Hagen, 3/11)
