The U.S. Supreme Court recently upheld most of the Obama Administration’s healthcare reform law under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). This law has a broad impact on the U.S. healthcare industry, including healthcare choices for California’s REALTORS®. Most of the key provisions under the PPACA are slated to commence in 2014, but other developments may occur before then as this law is further debated in legal and political arenas. More detailed information on the PPACA is available here.
C.A.R. has provided a summary of the key provisions of the PPACA that are likely to affect REALTORS®. The summary includes information about:
- Individual Mandate
- Pre-Existing Conditions
- Insurance Exchanges
- Young Adult Coverage
- Small Businesses
- Consumer Protection
- Effects of Real Estate Transactions
- California Health Plans
- Coverage Premiums
