Obamacare is being sent down the "memory hole."
The Trump administration, as it moves to repeal and replace Obamacare, has scrubbed a federal health-care website of positive words about that law, more formally known as the Affordable Care Act.
The scrubbing on HHS.gov left behind more neutral explanations of the law, at best, and in some cases omits highlights and features of the law that previously had been touted in positive terms on the site.
HHS.gov is the site run by the Department of Health and Human Services, the agency that oversees Obamacare and the nation's massive Medicare and Medicaid health coverage systems.
The ACA-targeted editing, first reported by the Washington Examiner Times, comes several weeks after the Trump administration killed most advertising and outreach efforts to encourage sign-ups on the federal Obamacare insurance exchange HealthCare.gov in the final days of open enrollment.
