And what exactly is NOT covered in this plan? And why have a plan that doesn't cover you if you get real sick?
Apparently there are several levels of insurance coverage as described by Reuters;

"The new health plans are organized in five tiers with different monthly premiums and out-of-pocket costs: catastrophic coverage, bronze, silver, gold and, in some areas, platinum."

What we don't know is the coverage limits in terms of total $'s or deductibles associated with each tier. As Nancy Pelosi said, you'll just have to read the details after the law is passed. Well we still don't really have details and the law is going to go into effect.

The fact that the Congress went back and exempted their staffs from Obamacare should tell people something. They said their staff members wouldn't be able to afford it and they are the new upper middle-class in America living in DC. If they can't afford the same level of coverage they had before, how is Joe and Nancy Smith going to?
