“Amend Title I, Subtitle B to require that, notwithstanding any other provision of law, beginning in 2013 elected officials and federal employees may purchase coverage through a state-based exchange, rather than using the traditional Federal Employees Health Benefits Plan (FEHBP).”
Sure, like the Federal employees would choose this over their own current insurance. Bravo Sierra. If they get to keep theirs then this continues to be B.S.
Reading through the Modifications first so when I read the other I know the updated version. Just the modifications are frightening.
To Accept Carper Amendment # C4:
Add a new section to Title II, Subtitle—B Medicaid
Require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to issue guidance to states and health care providers regarding Medicaid’s coverage of obesity-related services and preventive services. The Secretary will also be required to increase public awareness of and education regarding coverage of obesity-related benefits such as obesity screening and counseling for both children and adults. The Secretary will report to Congress on its public awareness efforts as well as the guidance provided to states and health care providers every three years starting in 2011 and ending in 2017.
