Yes, Under the Affordable Care Act, all Health Insurance policies issued within the united States must be replaced by 2014 with a policy that meets the new minimum coverage guidelines. Regardless of what anyone tells you, they must be replaced with a compliant policy. It's required in the language of the law.
Answer
With the current bill proposed theoretically no you will not lose your own private health care coverage. But the fear is that the national health care policy will be such a bargain you would have to be crazy to not take it, which would drive the private health insurance providers out of business and dramatically raise taxes to pay for the national health care policy called "Obamacare." Whether this would actually happen can only be speculated upon.
Answer
President Obama has said repeatedly that it is an OPTION. This means you choose. You opt for the plan that is best for you. How can having a choice be a bad thing?
Answer
Is this not what the free market, supply and demand in Capitalism are all about? If someone else can do it for less and it would therefore cost consumers less, the consumer should have the option to choose that plan.
Answer
Hundreds of thousands have been sent cancellation notices.
Obamacare is higher than your own coverage in most cases. It is a disaster, and is becoming a joke, because it's so hard to implement.
The left is even asking to extend the deadline one year, because many Democrat senators are up for re-election next year, and they realise just how unpopular this trainwreck of a bill is.
Answer
Like most complex subject, the answer is: it depends.
The ACA does NOT require all existing coverage be canceled. It DOES require certain minimum standards of coverage be met, otherwise the plan cannot continue to be sold. If a plan meets the ACA-standards, any covered person could continue to purchase it as normal.
Insurance companies have had five options when looking at plans that don't meet the ACA's standards:
Based on current sampling, it appears that #2 and #3 are by far the most common situation. For people who had "catastrophic" coverage, #1 is by far the most common (followed by #2), as this kind of coverage isn't allowed under the ACA, and there is no obvious equivalent. #5 is rare, since most companies don't like the administrative overhead of changing a plan's effects - it's simpler to create a new plan, and migrate the customer over to it (i.e. #4 is how insurance companies operate, not #5)
Note that the "customer" can also be employer-sponsored plans, so your choice of plans through an employer can change. Also note that insurance companies have always been able to discontinue coverage and/or change plans with few restrictions, so most people have never actually been able to "keep their plan" indefinitely, even under the old pre-ACA system.
If one excludes the changes in employer-provided plans (which have always changed at the whim of the employer, not employee), roughly 10 million total cancellation notices were sent out, which cover all the above situations. Data is not fully available, but estimates are that roughly one third of all such cancellations will be under case #3 and #4, which will not result in a loss of coverage, even if the customer doesn't do anything. In addition, it is expected that roughly half of the cases in #1 will automatically qualify for Medicaid instead, so there will be no loss of coverage there either. The final results are likely to show that somewhere around 5 million households had to go out an obtain entirely new coverage, though how many of them failed to do so will not be known until mid-2014.
Bottom line.
It's a disaster, expensive, and care will be deficient at best. Now comes the news from the architect of the bill, Jonathan Gruber, that we were lied to about the bill intentionally. And, he called us too stupid to understand the complex bill. Any questions? Good. You were warned.
Obamacare is an attempt at a national health service, much like most of Europe has. You will still have to pay, but it is likely that you will be paying a lot less than you are currently paying for health insurance. You can never lose a national health service, as it's usually included in welfare.

Most companies will also give you the option to exclude the dog from future coverage allowing you to carry on with your current policy.
Yes, as one thing has nothing to do with the other. Health insurance can be purchased either through a current employer or individually. Factors that the insurer considers in determining if it will issue a policy concern the health of the proposed insured, among others. Unemployment insurance is not insurance in the same sense. It is a benefit provided by the state in which you live to which your former employer has paid. It is payable to you if you lose your job through no fault of your own, and the duration of benefits is set by law.
Most people get health insurance through their job. Most insurance companies prefer to get one check to insure 100 people than to get 100 different checks. Since you have health insurance through your job when you lose your job, your old company no longer takes care of the paperwork. Most health insurance plans have a deductible. That means you must pay something.
If your health reaches 0 you are dead and you will lose a life. If you lose all of your lifes you are defeated and its game over for you.
No. You will get a payment from the insurance policy if either * You are killed due to an accident or health issues or * You meet with an accident and are permanently disabled As long as you are healthy and alive, you will not get your insurance payout.
