Dickerson on health vote
CBS News chief Washington correspondent John Dickerson weighs in on the political impact of the House passing an Obamacare replacement bill.
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
Pre-existing conditions
The health care bill passed by House Republicans covers pre-existing conditions, but not the way Obamacare does. Instead, the bill would allow states to file for a waiver from the requirement that guarantees coverage if they set up so-called high-risk pools. David Begnaud reports on one family anxious about the consequences.
GOP health care vote
Republicans took the biggest step yet in their vow to repeal and replace Obamacare. Just six weeks after their effort appeared dead, the House passed a revised GOP plan with just one vote to spare. Nancy Cordes has more.
Health care next steps
The House has passed the GOP bill to replace Obamacare. CBS News political director Steve Chaggaris joins CBSN to discuss what the next steps are for the GOP health care plan.
Health care bill impact
The House has passed a bill intended to replace Obamacare. CBS News chief congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes joined CBSN with the reaction and possible impact of the Republican plan.
House passes health care
The House passed the GOP health care bill. The bill will replace Obamacare. CBS News chief White House correspondent Major Garrett joins CBSN to break down the impact of the bill.
Pelosi urges "no"
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi urged her colleagues to vote against repealing Obamacare. Pelosi said that every provision of President Trump's health care bill would be "tattooed on your forehead," adding that House members would "glow in the dark" if they approve the bill.
Health bill costs
President Obama's former economic adviser Austan Goolsbee joins CBSN to discuss the costs of the American Health Care Act, the GOP's replacement plan for Obamacare, which the House votes on today.
House vote on health care bill
Mr. Trump and his congressional allies agreed to add billions of dollars in funding to their health care bill. The change has persuaded some Republican moderates to shift from no to yes citing the added money will protect patients with pre-existing conditions. Nancy Cordes reports.
Repealing Obamacare
President Trump met with a group of Republican lawmakers as efforts to overhaul the Affordable Care Act remain in jeopardy. Washington Post reporter and CBS News political contributor Ed O'Keefe spoke to CBSN about whether the Obamacare replacement bill can pass.
Obamacare replacement & budget vote
President Trump says "it's time" for Congress to vote on replacing Obamacare. The newest plan is still failing to grab enough Republican support to pass the House and opponents are close to having enough votes to block it. Major Garrett reports from the White House.
GOP health care bill
In his interview on "Face The Nation," President Trump vowed that any health care reform would guarantee coverage for people with pre-existing conditions. But the GOP proposal under consideration in Congress does not do so. Nancy Cordes reports on the health care disconnect.
Trump on healthcare
In President Trump's "Face the Nation" interview, he repeatedly said Obamacare is "dead," but Republicans in Congress haven't agreed on a replacement. In a rally in Pennsylvania this weekend, Trump told supporters he will keep his promise to reform healthcare -- and many others. Major Garrett reports.
GOP health care bill
After showing signs of life, the Republican plan to replace Obamacare may be back on life support. A compromise that got the most conservative House members on board is causing moderates to pull their support. Nancy Cordes reports.
Progress on GOP health care bill?
After weeks of negotiations, members of the conservative Freedom Caucus have finally agreed to vote yes on the amended GOP health care bill. The effort to repeal Obamacare last month failed when the group refused to support it. Nancy Cordes reports on why no one's doing a victory lap yet.
Trump health care
The White House is pressuring Republican members of Congress to consider another overhaul of the Affordable Care Act in the next week. But Congress also needs to pass a measure to fund the government by the end of the month. CBS News political director Steve Chaggaris and Mark Leibovich of The New York Times Magazine join "Red & Blue" to discuss.
Obamacare's future
After House Republicans scrapped their health care bill, President Trump said he's going to let Obamacare "explode." But Larry Levitt of the Kaiser Family Foundation says there's no sign it's exploding on its own. Chip Reid reports.
Cleveland Clinic CEO on health care
In this installment of our Issues That Matter series, we take a closer look at the current state at of the American health care system.

Ryan on tax reform
In an interview with "CBS This Morning" co-host Norah O'Donnell, House Speaker Paul Ryan discusses why he thinks "Obamacare taxes hurt the economy," and his constant conversations with the Trump administration about the proposed border adjustment tax.
Will Obamacare "explode"?
House Speaker Paul Ryan says Obamacare will be the law of the land for the forseeable future.

Shannon Pettypiece, White House correspondent for Bloomberg News, joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss the state of the Affordable Care Act.
GOP divide & health bill fail
