Excerpts from ObamaCare Fine Print (1)

The following excerpt was copied directly from HR 3200, the National Health Care bill that Speaker Pelosi plans to bring to the floor of the House of Representatives for a vote, perhaps as soon as Saturday.

SEC. 141. Health Choices Administration; Health Choices Commissioner

(a) IN GENERAL. – There is hereby established, as an independent agency in the executive branch of the Government, a Health Choices Administration (in this division referred to as the  “administration”).

(b) Commissioner:

(1) IN GENERAL. – The Administration shall be headed by a Health Choices Commissioner who shall be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate.

Sec. 142. DUTIES AND AUTHORITY OF COMMISSIONER.

(a) DUTIES. – The Commissioner is responsible for carrying out the following functions under this division:

(1) QUALIFIED PLAN STANDARDS.-The establishment of qualified health benefits plan standards under ths title, including the enforcement of such standards in coordination with State insurance regulators and the Secretaries of Labor and the Treasury.

Elsewhere in the bill are the requirements that all health plans meet “qualified plan standards” which means that all plans, whether offered by the government or by private companies will be the same.  Thus, this Commissioner will dictate the terms of your health insurance.  Period.

The actual function of the “Health Choices Commissioner” is to make make all choices for you, so there are no choices left for you to make.
