Video: How the Health Insurance Exchange Really Works

America’s Affordable Health Choices Act, H.R. 3200, is the product of a historic collaboration between all three House committees that have jurisdiction over health care: Education and Labor, Energy and Commerce, and Ways and Means. The bill addresses many of the problems in our current health care system by making improvements in the access, affordability, and adequacy of health care coverage. The following interactive will help you understand how the contents of the bill will affect your health care coverage and whether you will have to pay higher taxes as a result of the reforms.

* This document is intended to be a guide. The bill’s final effect will not be known until it becomes law. Additionally, the interactive attempts to take every individual’s situation into account, but those in exceptional circumstances may not be able to get a complete explanation of how the bill will affect them.
