Eric Greitens in 2018 MO Senate race


On Health Care: ObamaCare has been a disaster in Missouri

With the Republican-led Congress and Trump now pushing to repeal ObamaCare, Gov. Eric Greitens expressed concern about the changes of the replacement plan during a Facebook Live event.

Greitens, who has been critical of the Affordable Care Act, said he has some qualms with the replacement plan: "What they're working on right now in the House is obviously a first draft. I have some concerns with it," said Greitens, a Republican.

Some Republicans have expressed fear that the plan under consideration is a long way from the free-market insurance competition they'd hoped for. But citing increasing premiums and limited choices of insurers, Greitens maintained that ObamaCare has been a disaster in Missouri.

"We've been talking with conservatives about what we need to do to build a patient-centered approach that offers flexibility to families so that they have options, and also flexibility to the states so we can build a better system here in the state of Missouri," he went on.
