If You Like What You Have, Can You Keep It?

PPACA and Employer-Sponsored Insurance

 

Capitol Visitor's Center, Room SVC 212

Tuesday, January 31, from 3:00 to 4:00 PM


Presentation by Professor Daniel Schwarcz, University of Minnesota Law School

with Featured Speaker Senator John Barrasso (R-WY)

and commentary from 
James C. Capretta, Fellow, Ethics and Public Policy Center, and Project Director, e21's ObamaCare Watch


The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) was sold to the American people with the promise that “If you like what you have, you can keep it.” New academic research is clearly disproving this claim. The health law provides strong incentives for employers to move their sick and low-wage workers out of job-based plans and into publicly subsidized coverage. The result will be soaring costs for taxpayers, and millions of people losing the coverage they have today. This session will explore in detail these findings from the academic community.
