The challenge now is to stabilize the ACA’s insurance marketplaces. They are not in free fall or imploding, as President Trump suggests, and in most markets insurer profits have been improving. About 20 percent of marketplace enrollees have access to only one insurer, with the biggest problems in rural areas. Finding consensus on the narrow issue of stabilizing this slice of the health insurance system should be possible if the larger, partisan debate about Obamacare is truly over. It’s no longer Obamacare; it’s now just the nation’s health insurance system.
