Mr Trump has not delivered on healthcare. Insurance plans are run through Medica (middle and North US only), Bluecross, United Healthcare etc. The plans in healthcare.gov are run according to the Obamacare requirements. No pre-existing conditions rules etc.
Trump's op-ed seems to be just throwing confusion at seniors (likely to vote Republican anyway), scaring them with any change to Medicare, death panels etc etc. The death panels never killed anyone, they (or the people making decisions) were there to prevent spending needlessly on patients that were beyond help. if you are going to die, the system should make it as easy as possible to die at home, not in a hospital bed hooked up to monitors.
Trump seems to offer choice. The choice is cheap plans, essentially the same plans Medica, Bluecross, United Healtcare etc. offer in Obamacare but now with strings attached. Do you want to cover pregnancy? Contraceptives? Normal things are excluded. It is called Short Term insurance. The only plus they offer is cheaper premiums. But the legal fine print in those plans is so complicated that you may not get any healthcare at all. Most of them deny anyone with any "condition" any plan at all. You had surgery once years ago? No plan for you.
The reason any of this is brought up at all is there is a mid term election. THERE IS NO PLAN. It is all pure Trump team propaganda. The system IS rigged. It is rigged against you the consumer.
