VOICED: Historic reform has more Americans covered

The video discusses major changes in the American health insurance system, where all citizens will soon be required to have health insurance. Over 32 million Americans currently lack coverage. New legislation will impose fines on those who do not purchase insurance, but tax credits will be available to assist those in financial need. The reform is expected to cost $800 billion over ten years. Private insurers will remain central, as a public option is not included. Some changes, like coverage for pre-existing conditions, will take effect immediately, while most will be implemented by 2014, aiming for 95% coverage of U.S. citizens.
