The Affordable Care Act subsidy program has come under fire this week. The Government Accountability Office on Wednesday reported results of an undercover investigation that found 11 out of 12 GAO-submitted applications with fake information, such as falsified income and citizenship documents, were approved and awarded subsidies on the federal exchanges.
This comes a day after two district courts released competing decisions on whether subsidies can be offered altogether in the 36 states with federally run marketplaces with the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals deciding against the federal subsidies, the first such ruling in a lengthy appeals process against the ACAs subsidies.
