.
Additionally, short-term plan providers must
clearly explain benefit limitations to consumers.

The president really believes
the American people do not want
to be taken for suckers and junk insurance takes them for suckers, Neera Tanden, Biden's domestic policy adviser, via statement.
Short-term insurance is intended to temporarily serve as a safety net for periods of transition,
such as switching jobs or prior to receiving Medicare.
However, critics call these plans
"junk insurance" because they're often misleading as far as what they actually cover.
ABC News reports that the plans aren't required to cover those with preexisting conditions or pay for prescription drugs.
In 2018, Trump expanded short-term plans and referred to them as "much less expensive health care at a much lower price.".
Neera Tanden, Biden's domestic policy adviser,
said that Trump undermined the Affordable Care Act
(ACA) when he allowed insurance companies to
sell inadequate short-term plans.

Gene Simmons said,
"I don't like the word acquisition.".
Collaboration is exactly what it’s
about. It would be remiss in our
inferred fiduciary duty — see what
I just did there? — to the thing
that we created to abandon it, Gene Simmons, to AP.
People might misunderstand and think,
‘OK, now Pophouse is doing that stuff
and we’re just in Beverly Hills twiddling
our thumbs.’ No, that’s not true. , Gene Simmons, to AP.
We’re in the trenches with them.
We talk all the time. We share ideas.
It’s a collaboration. Paul (Stanley) and
I especially, with the band, we’ll stay
committed to this. It’s our baby, Gene Simmons, to AP

Sam Bankman-Fried , Speaks Out After Sentencing.
The former FTX CEO was sentenced
to 25 years in prison on March 28.
He was previously convicted of fraud, conspiracy and money laundering.
In an exclusive interview with ABC News,
the 32-year-old exhibited remorse for his actions, saying, "It's most of what I think about each day.".
Bankman-Fried attributed FTX's downfall to many "bad decisions" made in 2022, ABC News reports. .
I never thought that what I was
doing was illegal. But I tried to hold
myself to a high standard, and I
certainly didn't meet that standard. , Sam Bankman-Fried, to ABC News.
I've heard and seen the despair,
frustration and sense of betrayal from
thousands of customers; they deserve
to be paid in full, at current price, Sam Bankman-Fried, to ABC News.
That could and should have
happened in November 2022,
and it could and should happen
today. It's excruciating to see
them waiting, day after day, Sam Bankman-Fried, to ABC News.
Bankman-Fried went on to say that he's "haunted, every day, by what was lost.".
I'd give anything to be able to help
repair even part of the damage.
I'm doing what I can from prison,
but it's deeply frustrating not
to be able to do more, Sam Bankman-Fried, to ABC News.
Bankman-Fried plans to
appeal based on trial testimony that
"greatly misstated what actually happened.".
I'd give anything to be out there, trying
to make a positive difference in the
world, but I know that's not going to
happen. I can't help from prison, Sam Bankman-Fried, via statement
