“The insurance tax credits in this bill do not vary with a person’s income and are not pegged to the cost of a particular plan… Premiums would increase more with age than would the federal assistance to help pay for coverage.The bill would allow insurers to set premiums for the oldest adults (64 years old) at least five times higher than premiums for the youngest adults (18 years old) for the same coverage, but the tax credits for the older adults would be only two times as large as those offered the youngest adults.”
