Health Care Reform
Preparing For the Changes Ahead
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, known as “health care reform,” transforms the health care system in America. Health care reform is likely to affect you, whether you are:
- currently insured, uninsured, or eligible for Medicare;
- an owner of a small business or an employee of a large corporation;
- a physician, medical staff member or hospital administrator.
We hope the information presented here helps you navigate the new law successfully. On these pages, you will find answers to frequently asked questions, key provisions of reform, and what Independence Blue Cross (IBC) is doing to help you as health care reform unfolds over the following months and years.
