Yes, You Can Keep Your Health Plan
The Wall Street Journal published an op-ed today charging that the Affordable Care Act will prevent people from keeping their current health plan and limit their choices. However, this ignores the realities of health reform.First, the 150 million Americans with employer-sponsored health insurance—who make up the vast majority of those with private health insurance today—will not see major changes to their coverage. For this group, the Act does include some important protections and enhancements, such as coverage for young adults up to age 26 and the elimination of annual limits on covered health costs. However, at the end of the day, employer-sponsored insurance will be improved but still look much the same as it does now.
