The number comes from figures buried in a 15-page section of the nonpartisan organization's new ten-year budget outlook.
The best-case scenario described by the CBO would result in 'between 24 million and 27 million' fewer Americans being uninsured in 2025, compared to the year before the Affordable Care Act took effect.
Pulling that off will cost Uncle Sam about $1.35 trillion – or $50,000 per head.

Don't worry though.. this will not "add one dime to our deficit"..

Suckers.
That's a figure in isolation. It's also 20 percent lower than projections that came out when the law is enacted.

I'm pretty sure it will add to the national debt in isolation. The question is whether it creates a more productive economy by ensuring more people have access to health care, which allows them to be productive economically.
