Affordable Care Act (ACA) provisions for 2014

null@example.com (marions) — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 19:00:51 +0000

A quick look at the changes:

The ACA has set four levels of coverage — Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. You will be able to compare plans offering similar value.

You are eligible for coverage, regardless of health history. By law, you cannot be denied coverage because of pre-existing or ongoing conditions like cancer or diabetes.

Individuals and families may be eligible for financial assistance to help help pay for coverage and care. (Federal Government)

Health Insurance Marketplaces (referred to as exchanges) will allow you to apply for financial assistance or to make coverage more affordable. You will also be able to compare and choose coverage that best fits your needs and budget.

As quoted by ASCO
“Cancer patients represent a vulnerable population, as they often need complex and intensive health care services when diagnosed and if they have a cancer recurrence,” the letter stated. “For many people, therapies are targeted according to tumor type and genetics, so drug coverage under the essential health benefits must consider this movement toward targeted cancer treatment.”
