The High Cost of Cheap Health Insurance
As ACA enrollment reopens, watch out for short term plans. Here’s why you should steer clear, and how to get better coverage. By Lisa L. Gill
WASHINGTON President-elect Joe Biden on Thursday announced new White House staff members who will serve under Susan Rice, the director of his Domestic Policy Council, charging them with coordinating with federal agencies to help implement his early domestic policy agenda.
The hires include four deputy directors of the Domestic Policy Council, a special assistant and a deputy assistant. Focus areas include racial justice and equity, immigration, health care, veterans affairs and economic mobility.
In a surprise move, Biden last month named Rice – a former ambassador to the United Nations and then as his national security adviser under President Barack Obama – to lead domestic policy efforts. Rice was under consideration as Biden s vice president pick before he picked Sen. Kamala Harris last summer.
