The rule would have gone into effect on August 25, 2025, but a Biden appointed federal judge issued a stay that prevented most of the fraud protection measures in the rule from going into effect.

The Trump administration rule would have required individuals enrolled in fully subsidized plans to confirm their eligibility or pay $5 a $5 fee. But this judge decided that this easily avoidable fee constituted an illegal premium. The judge also criticized Paragon data analysis and said the CBO study. Excuse me, cited we're too old.
