The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that the Senate Finance Committee plan would cost about $800 billion between now and 2019. Most of this increased cost would, in principle, be financed by $215 billion of taxes on high-premium insurance policies, and by about $400 billion of cuts in payments to physicians and hospitals that provide services to older patients in the Medicare program.
无党派的国会预算局预测参议院财政委员会计划从现在到2019年将耗资8000亿美元。原则上增加的大部分开支将来自对高保费保单2150亿美元的税收，以及在Medicare计划中为老年患者服务的医生和医疗机构4000亿美元费用的缩减。
