The difficulty we have is that no advanced plan is now available. Even if health insurers do not submit new plans before 31 March 2013, there will be no non-advanced plans. What will have to happen is a stripping of benefits from plans that are already in place. Correct me if I am wrong. That can only mean that people who can barely afford health insurance will have to pay themselves for the benefits that previously would have been covered. Am I right or wrong?
