The Trump administration is mailing $500 Obamacare refund checks to nearly a million Americans in 30 states, returning surplus fees officials blame on Biden-era overcharges. The U.S. Treasury has begun issuing the one-time $500 checks, each paired with a personal letter from President Donald Trump, to more than 950,000 people who bought coverage through HealthCare.gov and did not get taxpayer premium help. Fox News Digital reported that an administration official confirmed the mailings are underway across the 30 states that rely on the federal exchange. Residents in the 20 states that run their own marketplaces are not in line for a check. The money comes from surplus “user fees” charged to operate HealthCare.gov, what the White House…Open

The U.S. Treasury is the agency responsible for issuing the checks, while the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services runs the HealthCare.gov platform.
Q&A ID 0b04c3f8-2f10-4696-9f94-0d0c4ef497f8
