The Act will protect and preserve Medicare as a commitment to Americas seniors.
It will save thousands of dollars in drug costs for Medicare beneficiaries by closing the coverage gap called the donut hole.
Doctors, nurses and hospitals will be incentivized to improve care and reduce unnecessary errors that harm patients.
And beneficiaries in rural America will benefit as the Act enhances access to health care services in underserved areas.
The Act takes important steps to make sure that we can keep the commitment of Medicare for the next generation of seniors by ending massive overpayments to insurance companies that cost American taxpayers tens of billions of dollars per year.
As the numbers of Americans without insurance falls, the Act saves taxpayer dollars by keeping people healthier before they join the program and reducing Medicares need to pay hospitals to care for the uninsured.
And to make sure that the quality of care for seniors drives all of our decisions, a group of doctors and health care experts, not Members of Congress, will be tasked with coming up with their best ideas to improve quality and reduce costs for Medicare beneficiaries.
Bwany Fwank: Obamacare a mistake
"Health insurers will pay $1.3 billion in rebates to consumers and employers this year under a provision of President Barack Obama's healthcare reform law that penalizes plans that devote too little of their premium revenues to health services, an independent study showed on Thursday.
The study, published by the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation, said the data illustrated some of the tangible benefits that consumers and employers could expect from the embattled 2010 law if it survives two major legal and political election-year challenges.
The rebates, which are due by August 1, stem from premiums paid in 2011 on plans representing nearly 16 million beneficiaries. But Kaiser, a nonprofit healthcare research group, said most of the money is expected to go to employers rather than consumers."
He's right it should have been single payer.

He wanted single payer....he couldn't get the democrats onboard with that and had to settle.

That's not correct. He wanted to compromise with the R's...

Barney Frank said he thought the TIMING was a mistake. He felt it should have been done later in Obama's first term and felt it would have yielded a better health care bill. I agree. America needs Single-Payer.
