Americans’ unpaid medical bills will remain on their credit reports after a federal judge last week vacated a Biden-era Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) rule that would have removed such debt.
Are they? Do they not just have a (probably very robust) plan through their job like everyone else? I.e. taking money from their paycheck to pay for it? Of course having such a massive workforce would allow them to offer great insurance, I imagine.
I could be wrong, but I don’t believe judges are on Tricare or anything like that.
They have FEHB same as many federal employees. This gives them even more options than ACA and allows them to keep health insurance into retirement. The federal government like any employer covers a lot of their premiums.
No, but not sure how thats relevant. Their salaries also come from our taxes. Other federal employees aren’t the ones putting medical debt back onto credit reports.

So are our tax dollars funding it any more directly than they’re funding any other federal worker’s health insurance?
