Beware the Rush to Presumption, Part C: A Public Choice Analysis of the Affordable Care Act’s Interim Final Rules

Working Paper Series
From a process perspective, it appears that the analysis and review associated with these regulations was less thorough than economically significant regulations typically receive. The result was certainly subpar. The abbreviated regulatory process and low-quality analysis are predictable results of the incentives the regulatory agencies faced. A combination of top-down direction and tight deadlines eliminated the agencies’ ability and incentives to produce high-quality regulatory impact analyses or use the results to make choices. Presidential and congressional decisions, in turn, flowed predictably from the political incentives President Obama and Congress faced in 2010.
