All over the country Americans will be receiving emails and letters from their insurance companies explaining that there is nothing to worry about regarding ACA and their healthcare and their coverage will continue and actually improve.
See message below I just got from Keiser Permanente./
About the Supreme Court Ruling on the Affordable Care Act
The Supreme Court decision on the federal health care reform law has settled much of the legal uncertainty over how the law will be carried out.
As a Kaiser Permanente member, you need not be concerned about any disruption to your coverage and care resulting from the court's decision.
With your health and well-being in mind, we plan to continue our extensive efforts to implement health care reform, which began two years ago when the law first became effective.
We are implementing state and federal reform laws as an integrated health care system. These laws incorporate certain requirements around health care coverage. They also address broader improvements to the way health care is delivered now and in the future.
We are continuing to improve the quality and integration of care, and ensuring that we have the resources in place physicians, nurses, and other staff, as well as the right health care facilities to provide the care you and your family will need.
We are also reviewing the court's decision to determine how it may affect the law's expansion of Medicaid coverage to millions of Americans, which is planned to begin in 2014.
While political uncertainty still remains, we'll continue to be guided by our goals of providing high-quality care, great service, and affordability to our members and the communities we serve.

Messages like this contradict all the nonsense the idiotic RWingers are claiming about ACA.
