More specifically, employers with more than 50 employees will be required after 2014 to purchase an approved insurance policy for their “full-time” employees. Individuals who do not receive insurance from their employers are required to purchase insurance on their own, with low-income buyers receiving a government subsidy.
奥巴马医改的起草者考虑到了这一点，因此将购买保险作为“强制”条件。更具体地说，2014年后，雇员超过50人的雇主将被要求为其“全职”雇员购买经核准的保单。没有从雇主处获得保险的个人被要求自己购买保险，低收入购买者将获得政府补贴。
