One important fact this article does not mention is that the cost overruns in 2022 and 2023 were so serious that HFS stopped enrolling any new members in both programs. Since then total enrollment has dropped by 43%. Even so, the Administration decided to end the HBIA (age 42-64) program at the end of the current fiscal year.
