The Affordable Care Act081

Signed into law in March 2010 by President Barack Obama, the Affordable Care Act (sometimes referred to as ObamaCare) seeks to expand health insurance coverage, protect consumers and provide flexible health insurance options. Key features include:

  • access to insurance for patients with pre-existing conditions
  • young adult coverage – children can be covered up until age 26
  • elimination of lifetime limits on insurance coverage

All health insurance plans sold on the official websites are required to offer all of the new rights, protections and benefits of the Affordable Care Act.
