Why everyone should microchip their pets

Posted by Laura Hobart Leave Comment »

By 2014 several million more people will be eligible for Medicaid than would have been without the new health care law and the cost to the federal government and the states could exceed $70 billion over five years. Also, as a way to pay for the new costs, the feds will levy more taxes on health insurance premiums, including insurers providing coverage to recipients of Medicaid.

Beginning in 2014, Medicaid will be available to the non-elderly, non-pregnant, childless adults with income equal to 133 percent of the Federal Poverty Level – and once an adjustment is added – to 138 percent of the Federal Poverty Level. For 2
