Obamacare premiums are expected to drop 2 percent nationally next year, and the total number of insurers on the federal exchange will grow for the first time in four years, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said Thursday during remarks in Nashville.
Azar credited President Donald Trump for the improving insurance marketplace, saying that Trump had proven “better at managing” the Affordable Care Act, known widely as Obamacare, than the law’s namesake.
