Ok then - the health care bill has passed and been signed into law. Now what?
I had no idea just how many people in the US were without insurance - 83%
Here's a good "overview" http://www.healthwikisource.com/
And the full text: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.4872:
Looks like insurance companies will no longer be able to deny claims based on pre-existing conditions (excellent). Some Medicare reform down the road, companies with 50 employees or more will be required to provide insurance, and parents will be able to keep their kids on their family policies until they reach age 26.
Looks like a very complex thing. Was wondering how the changes may effect our future health care choices. Will it be easier or harder to say: to have insurance cover Schroth in WI - or an out of network surgeon?
