Despite being disavowed by Trump, Project 2025, a 922-page playbook compiled by The Heritage Foundation, is shaping his health policies. The conservative research group's plan calls for breaking the NIH's research monopoly and capping university payments to reduce taxpayer subsidisation of 'leftist agendas', potentially impacting healthcare reform and medical research funding. With its far-reaching proposals, Project 2025 is set to influence the future of US healthcare, including health insurance and medical research initiatives. Key policies may focus on reducing costs and increasing efficiency in the healthcare system.
