Health Care Reform Bringing Millions of Dollars to KY - Run for Your Lives!

If you're an early retiree or an employer carrying an early retiree on your company health insurance, your life just got easier, cheaper and more secure.

Thanks to that ni**er in the White House.

Jake has the details:

Today the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced that tons of Kentucky businesses, unions and government organizations have been accepted into the Early Retiree Reinsurance Program. The program helps maintain coverage for early retirees aged 55+ who aren’t yet eligible for Medicare. Those accepted receive reimbursement for medical claims.

“In these tough economic times, it is difficult for employers to keep up with skyrocketing health care costs for employees and retirees. Many Americans who retire before they are eligible for Medicare see their life savings disappear because of medical bills and exorbitant rates in the individual health insurance market,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. “The Affordable Care Act’s Early Retiree Reinsurance Program will make it a little easier for employers to provide high-quality health benefits to their retirees as we work to put in place market reforms to lower costs for all.”

Those accepted during the first round in Kentucky:

* AFL-CIO Health & Welfare Fund
* Commonwealth of Kentucky
* EON U.S. LLC
* Glass, Molders, Plastics International Union
* Kentucky Education Association
* Kentucky Laborers District Council Health & Welfare Fund
