Rep. Scott Perry (R-P) suggested on Sunday that no “legally” on Medic AID will not lose their coverage due to the GOP efforts to reduce costs.
In an interview on the “Hill Sunday” of the news, Anchor Chris Stirwalt noted that for the Republicans they will target the cost reduction they targeted, the cut would make the cut more than just waste, fraud and misuse.
Sterevalwt noted that Management Fissure Management for Management and Budget said that about 4 percent of federal payments are inappropriate, which, Stirwalt, noted that Billion is more than $ 31 billion in Medic AID.
“You are all planning to cut a lot in the next 10 years,” said Stirwalt. “Can you really promise that no one will lose his own health coverage as a result?”
“I think what we can promise is that no one will legally lose their coverage on Medic AID D, and I think it is important,” Perry replied.
He suggested that the Medic AID Cut was illegally in the U.S. Migrants may be affected.
“You are talking about inappropriate payments, but you have not illegally included such people. If you are illegally here, you should not be on any federal assistance program. They are designed for them. They are designed for Americans who are struggling, who are below the poverty line, or it is impaired, who cannot work and cannot afford health care. Perry added that it is designed for the program, not for millions of people who flood around the border and just wanted to live in America and want to lift the tab to everyone else, “Perry added.
Perry was less firm when asked about working class families on Medic AID, when the states were included when coverage expanded under the Affordable Care Act.
“I think we have to look at every fraud, waste and abuse, and the states are gaming for the system,” Perry said, “Perry said.”
He continued: “When you are referring to the expansion, the provider you are not referring to is something like a tax that states that there is nothing to do with the Medic AIDD. So there are so many things here. “
Perry said, Chris, is going to get money here, and we will find every part of it because the American taxpayer is sick to spend their money and send him to Washington Shington and the country and when they are broken, nothing can be found. “
