	Chip Roy on Health Care

Healthcare freedom without Washington interference

What we need is healthcare freedom--and that means getting rid of the regulations that are driving up costs. It means empowering healthcare sharing ministries and other avenues to providing more effective cost-sharing among communities. It means radically reforming Medicaid and devolving it to the states with no strings. It means no subsidies for insurance companies. And it means the right to get the healthcare of your choosing without interference from Washington. Source: 2018 Congress TX-21 election campaign website ChipRoy.com , Nov 27, 2019

Health insurance via free market plus Medicaid block grants

Q: It is the government's responsibility to be sure everyone has health insurance.

A: Strongly Disagree

Q: How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?

A: First, I would fully repeal each and every provision and regulation from the Affordable Care Act and permanently end the federal government's involvement in health care. The best way to promote quality healthcare and health insurance is to repeal regulations that interfere with the success of the free market and provide the states with unrestricted block Medicaid grants in order to best provide healthcare for their lower socio-economic citizens.

Repeal ObamaCare, according to PVS survey.

Roy supports the PVS survey question on repealing ObamaCare

Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Health Care: Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")?' PVS self-description: "The Political Courage Test provides voters with positions on key issues. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
