This would also be open to small employers who do not> offer a private plan.> * Creating a “National Health Insurance Exchange.” This would be a> government-run marketing organization that would sell insurance plans> directly to those who did not have an employer plan or public coverage.> * An employer “pay or play” provision that would require an employer to> either provide health insurance or contribute toward the cost of a public> plan.> * Mandating that families cover all children through either a private or> public health insurance plan.> * Expanding eligibility for government programs, like Medicaid and> SCHIP.> * Allow flexibility in embracing state health reform initiatives.> > Obama would also mandate guaranteed insurability, a generous minimum> comprehensive benefits package such as that required for federal workers,> the ability to take their policy from one job to another (portability) when> it is purchased through the new Medicare-like public plan or the "National> Health Insurance Exchange," and he would require providers to participate in> a new plan to collect and report data about standards of care, the use of> health information technology, and administration.> > McCain woiuld do for the Health Insurance industry what he did for wall> stree and the oil companies, less regulation, eliminate state restrictions> on limitations by carriers, and tax the benefit.
