not necessarily. in fact if you've been buying your own insurance (meaning you don't get it at work) there's at least a reasonable chance the coverage provided through plans that comply with the law will be better than what you had. it doesn't always work out that way but it's certainly a possibility. you just need to shop and compare.
i understand that i can get less expensive health insurance coverage than i now have. but doesn't that also mean the benefits won't be as good?
