So private insurance companies will now be required to accept pre-existing conditions?

And have no limits to coverage, cover all prescriptions, cover all doctor's office visits, cover dental, AND be cheaper and affordable for everyone? What is this Max Baucus guy smoking anyway? How is all of that possible without costing a lot more than what most people are paying now? They want to tax insurance companies for offering "Cadillac" insurance plans then require everyone else to have one too? Huh?
--------------------
Private insurers are already required to accept preexisting conditions on employer-based insurance. Even at the full rate, per person, employer insurance is cheaper than what an individual can get. If you spend more than 24,000 per person per year on health insurance, you have a "Cadillac" plan. Instead of taxing the individuals who have this type of plan, the Baucus plan is to tax the insurances that provide them.
