AI Summary
This bill, the Fair Indexing for Health Care Affordability Act, proposes to set forth a method of determining the maximum out-of-pocket limits and annual updates to premium tax credit eligibility under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA). Specifically, it amends the ACA to require that the premium adjustment percentage, which is used to determine the maximum out-of-pocket limits and premium tax credit eligibility, be based on estimates and projections of changes in the average per enrollee employer-sponsored insurance premiums, as provided by the National Health Expenditure Accounts, rather than just the overall premium growth rate.
