Conyers: A Tool to Estimate Impact of HC Law on Your Family

[mod mom]

What does the new health care law mean for me and my family?

The health care overhaul passed by Congress and signed by the President will ensure that all Americans have access to quality, affordable health care. It will provide coverage to 32 million more people – or more than 94% of Americans – while lowering health care costs for everyone over the long term. The new health care law bars insurance companies from discriminating based on pre-existing conditions, health status and gender. It provides small businesses and working families with tax credits to help purchase insurance. And it strengthens Medicare and closes the prescription drug “donut hole.”
