Moments before I sat down to start writing this post President Barack Obama signed the America’s Affordable Health Care Choices Act into law. Like most of you, I have not actually read the entirety of the bill. Truth be told, up until this morning I had not read any of it myself. Whether you are a supporter of the bill or not, though, you can’t deny that if it actually makes it over the administrative and legal hurdles that will undoubtedly be thrown in front of it in the next few months there are going to be some radical changes the landscape of American health care. While I’m sure that most Americans are familiar with the major provisions that are set forth in the bill (no denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions, children able to stay on their parents health insurance until the age of 26, etc…), like any piece of legislation that makes it through the House of Representatives there are a great number of changes that aren’t necessarily getting as much press.
