It forces individuals to subsidize them with their insurance premiums as abortion-inducing drugs will be covered under every policy. For exchange policies that cover surgical abortion, there is an abortion specific premium. Our tax dollars will also be pumped into Planned Parenthood and ilk as they get in on school based clinics and other programs created by PPACA.
Remember, high-deductible, catastrophic policies are not illegal.
But they don't meet the requirements for acceptable policies, so it will be difficult for companies who provide them to continue offering them in the long term.
yes so many policies will not meet the benchmark of a "Qualified Plan" if my research is correct...
* The High Deductible Plans for College Students
* The "McDonald's type plans that their a gazillion waivers for, that will lapse.
* HSA's will have to meet the Qualified Plan too...
If my memory is correct they all have to offer all the Obama Freebee's, i.e. Free Checkup, Birth Control Pills, Mammogram's, No maximum on the Policy and on till 26 if it's your parents plan, Colonoscopies etc etc....
This is why your policies are going through the moon and many will just go away, as Obama further destroys contract law on our road to Neuvo-Socialism..
