Getting waivers from HHS is going to be an important part of any state plan to implement their own single payer system.  And President Obama has already expressed his support for allowing states to begin receiving waivers from the ACA in 2014 rather than 2017.   That’s why FDL is joining with PNHP to ask both the President and HHS Secretary Kathleen Sibelius to commit to granting Vermont the waivers it needs to make Green Mountain Care the best program it can possibly be for the people of Vermont.
