Modern Healthcare: HHS, CMS Sued Over 2027 ACA Exchange Sales Freeze
Federal regulators’ efforts to block new marketers from selling health insurance exchange policies in 2027 have landed them in court. Agent and broker trade group the National Association of Benefits and Insurance Professionals sued the Health and Human Services Department and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland on Thursday, alleging the agencies violated the Administrative Procedure Act of 1946 by failing to ask for public comments before banning new marketers from selling policies on HealthCare.gov for 2027. The lawsuit also alleges the agencies lack the statutory authority to implement the freeze. (Tepper, 10/15)

AP: Teen Shooter Kills 4 At Bend, Oregon, Elementary School, Police Say
A 16-year-old shot his way through locked doors to get into an elementary school in Bend, Oregon, on Thursday, killing three children and a teacher. He was then shot by a person at the scene who followed him inside, authorities said. The suspect was found dead inside the school minutes after the shooting was first reported, Bend Police Chief Mike Krantz said. The three children killed were aged 5, 8 and 11. Another child, 7, and a teacher, 54, were injured and taken to the hospital in critical condition, he said. The attacker used a pump-action shotgun that was purchased by his mother, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the shooting. (Durkin Richer, Tucker and Johnson, 10/16)
There's No Link Between Ultraprocessed Food And Colorectal Cancer In Older Adults, Lengthy Study Finds
There's No Link Between Ultraprocessed Food And Colorectal Cancer In Older Adults, Lengthy Study Finds
As reported in NBC News, the study followed more than 460,000 adults ages 50 to 71 over a 23-year period. “On its own, ‘ultraprocessed’ is not a reliable guide to whether a food is ‘healthy’ using a nutrient-based definition,” the study's author said. But Dr. John Marshall, chief medical consultant at the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, said the study doesn't address the big question: “What’s the right thing to be eating?”
