The law was signed in 2010 but January 1, 2014 will be quickly upon us. Starting in 2014, it will be the law that you must have health insurance. Insurance companies will no longer be able to refuse coverage to those with pre-existing conditions. The cost of insuring them will be paid out of the inexpensive premiums of the health people. States now also have the option of expanding Medicaid which will help those that can’t afford health insurance. There will also now be “exchanges” which will help consumers purchase insurance and compare plans from different carriers. They are supposed to be ready starting in October 2013. There will be new guidelines for employers providing health insurance for their employees. Where we are now, there are still many questions as to how the whole system is going to work out. At this time next year, we will all know a lot more than we do now. If you or your business needs help with health insurance, feel free to call me at 818-642-6447 or EMAIL ME
