Obama administration spokesman Josh Earnest brushed off the most recent plan proposed by the Republicans to replace the Affordable Care Act, according to The Hill.

Here are four takeaways:

1. Mr. Earnest commented the plan encompasses previous Republican proposals, like somewhat privatizing Medicare.

2. Additionally, Mr. Earnest noted the new plan doesn't address major details, such as the number of people who may lose insurance under the new plan.

3. Mr. Earnest said the plan also doesn't account for the impact on the federal budget.

4. He concluded the new Republican plan is "not worthy" of consideration, according to The Hill.
