President Trump is now calling on Congressional Republicans to just repeal the Affordable Care Act -- without anything to replace it. 

The president tweeted his support for the plan after Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse said on Fox News Friday morning that he would request the president's support for such a move.

Doing so would revive an approach GOP leaders considered initially but dismissed, because it was considered impractical and politically unwise. 

The move could harden divisions between conservatives who are against the Senate's health care bill because it does not go far enough in ending ObamaCare, and moderates who are against the bill because it would be painful for their states.

All the while health care policy experts are left to sort out what this will mean for the average American.

“I think they really need to bring more experts into the room," said Meredith Robertson, who helped to develop health care policy and now teaches at University of Central Florida. "And unfortunately, I think there’s a lot of politics involved.”

Robertson said the Republican plans get rid of individual and employer mandates, which require people or large companies to buy or provide insurance.

“I think the idea of getting rid of this is a real concern," said Robertson. “Without healthy people buying insurance, it makes the whole risk pool that the insurance company is managing risky."

The plans, she said, also leave older, pre-retirement age Americans paying more.

“They’re going to reduce premiums for the younger, to get them to buy, and increase premiums for the older, because they’re more likely to have health issues," she explained. “Kaiser Family Foundation put out some numbers, it would increase by about 100 percent.”

The Congressional Budget Office released a forecast to 2036 on Thursday, projecting the Senate bill would decrease Medicaid funding by 35 percent.

CBO’s initial report said that the bill would slash the deficit by billions, but leave 22 more million Americans uninsured in 2026.

KFF created an interactive map from the CBO projections, which can be found on the Kaiser website. You can set age, income and even state to find out how different premiums will be in 2020 under the Senate's health care bill.

Robertson noted that the Senate health care plan does appear to tackle a problem Florida maintains: an uninsured group of people who fall into a gap, not poor enough for Medicaid, but don’t make enough to pay for regular coverage.

“I noticed the Senate bill would actually fix that. We will have some people in Florida who will gain coverage that were previously uninsured because they didn’t expand Medicaid," she said.

Still, Robertson admitted much will depend on power given to states over healthcare exchanges.

“If we see that it’s giving states flexibility, then we really need to pay attention what’s going on in Tallahassee. I think that’s the real message, especially in Florida," she said.
