The Health Care Reform Bill passed by a vote of 219 to 212 on Sunday afternoon. The bill is expected to be signed into law by President Obama on Tuesday, March 23, 2010.
We have needed health care reform for many years. Is this bill what we need? Who knows? In the past, insurance companies and employers have regulated what insurance was available and how much it would cost. When we left a job we lost the insurance--except for 18 months of COBRA when it was offered.
Many individuals could not afford health insurance. With the new law requiring insurance for everyone, more affordable insurance can be expected.
