People would be free to buy insurance although I'm not sure why they would. Maybe if there's enough people who hate the government and want to pay for it themselves a market could develop.
The admin burden would be significantly reduced. This is single payer + cash transactions. There's nothing to catalog.
The individual must spend $1,000 on preventative care to collect on the unspent $4,000.
Expenses above $5,000 would be covered under Medicare For All.
Over this week, he's threatening to gut funding for the ACA so it will fail.

Yes, today the idiots are trying again to get rid of the ACA. I guess no one studied what is exactly in it; but yeah now they tossed in an 8 billion "fund" just in case certain States "drop" the pre-existing conditions. For the rest this bill seems to be even worse than the first try. In the meantime Trumps is signing "church" executive orders related to "birth control pills" and other church stupidity. TX is issuing an bill about sanctuary cities so hey can deport people as they like.
Yes this country goes deeper and deeper into the shit swamp; congratulations GOP voters you will feel the effect.
I wrote an e-mail to my Congressman, Doug Lamborn, that no reputable businessman would approve of this plan without having the knowledge of how it will effect us economically (i.e. the CBO Score). The rush to approve this before anyone finds out what's in it makes little business sense. I told Lamborn, that if he votes yes, and the CBO score later turns out to be very negative, it will be a big embarrassment to him, Donald Trump and the Republican Party.
While the feeling is that the Senate will not approve it, we don't know what backroom deals Trump will make so that he can check off another box as "campaign promise accomplished".

@Dutch, Ryan, the speaker has refused to have any type of town hall in my city, he must be a scaredy cat. I watched him bobbing his head today when they announced the house passed their repeal-replace bill, the man makes me sick. I'm hoping Wisconsin voters see through his bs. He's a gutless wonder.

As Lamborn often touts his "Christianity" I asked him to think critically if his vote was based more on a deep seated hatred towards our former president rather than acting in the best interest of his constituents. I closed asking him how Jesus would have voted.
If you wrote a letter to your representative, you'll be bombarded by positive slant spam.
I wrote my governator about his union busting tactics, and all I got back in return was positive slant or biased emails saying what a good job he was doing.
The senate will probably tweak the house bill and pass it on to dear leader for signature. I'll be among the 24 million people scrambling to figure out what to do.
