Looks like a lot of savings. Have to admit it's hard to trust whomever wrote it though. For example "Cracking down on fraud and abuse etc......", shouldn't they be doing that anyways? I also heard that only 1% are taking advantage of that under 26 rule. Maybe it's a good thing though. Don't know I guess. Just never seen a government program not get bogged down with bureaucracy and not hit projections. I'm actually happy with my insurance plan I have now but won't this make my insurance rates go up and or force some companies to go out of business since they can't deny people even if they have prior health problems?
