Very good outline, Madison. It has been hard to wade through all the smoke and mirrors during this debate.

Now, however, the true test begins: will it turn out at all like the promises, or will it fall into the bucket of all the other govt spending plans? Over-budget and under-performing.

Cheers!

While the bill is headed toward becoming law, the fighting over it isn’t going away anytime soon. Republicans have already issued notice that they plan to campaign in this fall’s midterm elections on a pledge to repeal it. There will be constitutional challenges. And in dozens of states, legislatures are considering measures that would attempt to exempt their citizens from some of its provisions, including the requirement that individuals purchase insurance.

Extending health insurance coverage to 32 million uninsured people is an astoundingly massive figure. It’s been interesting to watch some of this news on the tube. Nice post.

Good catch! Thanks for bringing up the timeline, especially since the dates range from 2010 to 2018. Another good timeline summary is the Reuters article mentioned in the source list.

Madison,
Thanks so much for the information on the impact of the Health Care Bill. The only part that is missing is the actual timeline of events since these things don’t all happen at once.
I’ve found this article from the NY Times to be helpful in establishing a timeline for the reforms: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03.....ef=general
You will see that they are staggered in over the course of the next few years. I think this information, combined with the very good information you supplied, will give us a road map for planning.
