Today in a statement from the President, individual policyholders will now be allowed to maintain their current health plan if they so choose. This was on the heels of tremendous pressure put on the President because of statements made by him....."if you like your health plan, you can keep your health plan, period". As we all know this turned out to be untrue. What seems to be overlooked are all of the individuals and families in employer based coverage being forced into reform plans. (Employer Group Under 50 Employees) If employer based plans are not "Grandfathered" same as individual market, they would lose their current plan and be forced into a plan that now conforms to the Affordable Care Act (health reform). The individual market is being addressed, the small group employer market is being overlooked.
