Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance has shared some details about the Trump-Vance campaignā€™s health care plan, and it appears to allow insurers to charge more for preexisting conditions.

Vance gave details on NBCā€™sĀ Meet the Press on Sunday, where heĀ toldĀ Kristen Welker that Donald Trumpā€™s plan involves ā€œderegulating insurance markets, so that people can actually choose a plan that makes sense for them.ā€

This would appear to roll back some of the Affordable Care Act, which got rid of insurance companiesā€™ ability to deny coverage based on preexisting conditions. Prior to President Obamaā€™s legislation, it was difficult to get affordable health care coverage except through Medicare, Medicaid, or employer-based plans. While health care plans were available outside of that, insurers sought profits by weeding out people likely to require medical care.
