Healthcare reform three years from now

http://healthreform.kff.org/the-animation.aspx

This video (there's also an option for transcript) explains healthcare reform laws that we are expected to see now through 2014 as Phase 1 begins. It's very informative. I like the fact that young people will be insured through their parents insurance until age 26. Insuring those who has pre-existing conditions, eliminating lifetime limits on benefits, and tax incentives for small businesses are only a few examples of changes we are expected to see. Of course these changes all comes with a price tag.I think it's the providers who will take the cut. I can only hope that this will not discourage future doctors and others to enter/remain in healthcare profession. What do you think?
