The information was billed as an “update” on progress made toward a revised bill, which still has Republican moderates and conservatives divided in the Senate, according to the report. At least 10 Republican senators do not support the last official version of the bill.
Some changes that have been discussed publicly include adding $45 billion for opioid treatment and adding billions to state innovation funds, according to the report. However, senators remain divided on additional issues such as Medicaid cuts, refundable tax credits and a proposal to allow payers to sell deregulated plans on the ACA exchanges.
Despite these divisions, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said a revised bill would be ready Thursday, Reuters reported.
