WASHINGTON — Government experts say some middle-class families would still face a big budget hit for health care, even with the new help that Democrats want to provide.
A family of four making $66,000 could face a total health-care bill of $10,000 — counting premiums, copayments and deductible — under the House Democratic health-care bill, the Congressional Budget Office said Monday. And that’s after counting $10,500 in government assistance.
The estimates apply to people buying their own coverage, not those in employer plans.
