PG 145 Line 15-17 An Employer MUST auto enroll employees into public option plan. NO CHOICE.
15 (4) AUTOENROLLMENT OF EMPLOYEES.—The employer provides for autoenrollment of the employee in accordance with subsection (c).
20 (c) AUTOMATIC ENROLLMENT FOR EMPLOYER SPONSORED HEALTH BENEFITS.—
22 (1) IN GENERAL.—The requirement of this subsection with respect to an employer and an employee is that the employer automatically enroll suchs employee into the employment-based health benefits 1 plan for individual coverage under the plan option with the lowest applicable employee premium.
(2) OPT-OUT.—In no case may an employer automatically enroll an employee in a plan under paragraph (1) if such employee makes an affirmative election to opt out of such plan or to elect coverage under an employment-based health benefits plan offered by such employer. An employer shall provide an employee with a 30-day period to make such an
affirmative election before the employer may automatically enroll the employee in such a plan.
So this claim is false, there CLEARLY IS an Opt-Out Option, and if I am reading this corretly, there is still "private" insurane options too, i.g. "elect coverage under an employment-based health benefits plan offered by such employer"

According to this, you can keep your plan until the time comes (annual) for re-enrollment. Then you have to have the government plan.
I'm still looking for the specifics on that though. . .

I don't really understand the claim, so I'm not sure what to call it.
This section I do understand though, I think. I think this means that if I go work at companies A, B, and C all in the same calender year, my wages from those three employers will be considered to have been from the same source. It's entirely possible I'm way off on this one though. Anyone have a better idea as to what this section means?

So does that mean the eventual and complete eradication of private coverage? Am I reading this right?
