Regarding employer sponsored plans:
" . . . the Departments’ [HHS] mid-range estimate is that 66 percent of small employer plans and 45 percent of large employer plans will relinquish their grandfather status by the end of 2013. The low-end estimates are for 49 percent and 34 percent of small and large employer plans, respectively, to have relinquished grandfather status, and the high-end estimates are 80 percent and 64 percent, respectively."
Table 3 - ESTIMATES OF THE CUMULATIVE PERCENTAGE OF EMPLOYER PLANS RELINQUISHING THEIR GRANDFATHERED STATUS, 2011–2013 provides details of the above estimates categorized by employer-size.
__From The Federal Register, June 2010 pages 34552 and 34553
That? Where in that does it say that "60 percent of people could lose their health care next year?"
At best, it says some employer-sponsored plans may lose their grandfather status. Losing grandfather status does not mean it ceases to exist. At worst, some employers will update their plans to take advantage of the new rules. It certainly doesnot mean that "60 percent of people could lose their health care next year".
If you simply must post something random and irrelevant, next time at least have it be in a bikini.
